I can set up my data source to have the number of copies per record.
It is created through regular data entry, so I can manipulate it to
include the number of copies. *I guess the mail merge only solution

The only way to do this with Mail Merge alone would be to have the necessary
number of copies of the records in the data source.
Another way, if you had a field in the data source that contained the number
of copies that were required for each client, would be to use some Visual
Basic Code to interate through the data source and create the required
number of copies of each letter.
How was your data source created?

Hi, I'm new to mail merges. *I have searched the group for an answer,
and have found some similar questions, but I haven't been able to
figure this out.
I have a letter that goes out to clients that I have been able to use
a mail merge for. *The problem is that some clients need up to 5
additional copies of the letter to be sent out. *It is different for
each client in the data set. *I would like to *print out all the
letters at once, with the correct number of copies printing for each
client.
Please help!
Thanks
The data source is an excel file
