Default Merge data with 2 forms on one page

Use a two cell table to make the 'columns' Put a next record field at the
top of the second cell only
or
Use columns and put the 'form' in only the first column. Set the document
type to Directory/Catalog and merge to a new document. Make sure that the
two columns line up.

I've tried putting "NEXT" about everywhere I can think. Can this be
done? I either get two records the same on a page or two different
records on the same page with the next page repeating the second
record of the previous page.
