Hi Andy,

I think you'll find exactly what you need in the DATABASE sample file
discussed in the "one-to-many" topic in the Special Merges section of my
website's mail merge FAQ.

I want to use the mailmerge function to produce hundreds of forms from
an Excel file. The Excel file contains some sales data like this:

Purchaser Item Price
Amy Table 100
Amy Chair 50
Amy Desk 80
Betty Chair 60
Betty Sofa 120
Carl Sofa 100
Carl Desk 70
Carl Table 100
Carl Mat 50

The table is sorted by the column "Purchaser". Can I use the mailmerge
function to produce forms like this:

Purchaser: Amy
Item Price
Table 100
Chair 50
Desk 80

etc...

One page contains only one form where the form contains all purchase of a
purchaser.

Besides, can the form be tabulated?
