It sounds as though you are merely previewing the merge rather than
coimpleting it - see

I'm sorry. I forgot to mention that the merge did appear in the label
format showing the gridlines and all. The label settings were correct
but only Row 1, Column 1 was being used for each address label. 19
addresses = 19 pages of labels since only one label per sheet was
being used. I don't understand what I did wrong. Thanks again!

Thanks for the reply. I'm sorry but I don't understand your
suggestion. I'm very new to Office 2007 and haven't used mail merges
too much in the past. What exactly do I need to do? Thank you!

Hi Munchichic,
Your problem description suggests you didn't choose the 'labels'
merge option.

Hi Everyone. I'm new to Office 2007 and I can't figure out this
problem. I created an address database in Excel to use in a Word
mail merge for mailing labels. After several attempts I finally
got the data to merge (the normal DDE method didn't work as it
said there was no data).
There are only 19 labels in the merge. They only show in Preview
using the very top left label field; I can scroll through all of
the 19 records and they all appear in the same spot. If I print
the mail merge only one label prints in that very same spot. I
need ALL of the labels to be on the same document. What am I doing
wrong?
Once I succeed in having all of the labels on the same page is it
possible to only select one, or speciifc, label(s) to print
without deleting the rest on the sheet? Any help is greatly
appreciated. This is a project at work where data is on a network
drive if that helps. Thank you and I hope you all have a great
weekend!
