Default Mail Merge Labels (Word 2007) from Excel (2007)

I've checked... and I don't see any odd characters. I do have a column that
includes email addies, but that is not included in the merge. I did check
out your link prior to my original post...

However, going through the archives, I did see that someone else had a
similiar problem... and the following was suggested:

"I have had this problem too. I found that using the field "next record" is
the problem. Try it without using this field."

I don't see how this would help... because how would it know what the next
block to merge.

It might be worth copying the table to Word and using the word document as a
data source. While Word will merge from quite a variety of data sources, it
is happiest when that source is a Word document.

My guess is that you have a character in the 61st record that the merge sees
as unacceptable - maybe a comma?

I've created a mailing list using Excel. I need create mailing
labels (Avery 8160) I've only been able to merge the first 60
records. There are about 10 additional records that didn't get
merged. What might I have done incorrectly?
