Default Skipping records when merging to print

I forgot to add that I can merge a single record at a time without an issue.

Yes, first thing. This was set up by another user but done in a complex
manner. It thinks it is linked to sql. somewhere which I dont have.

When I open the excel source data it shows me a select table that looks like
this:
'2004$'
'2004'$Print_Area
'2004'$Print_Titles
but the only one I can select is the first one.
I only have one table (albeit large) and cannot find a way to edit the print
area or delete it. It is not in the normal setup.

Do you think I may need to re-create the main document?

I have a large excel database that merges into a word doc so that each
record
creates two pages to print (broken into 1 section for each two page
record).
I can merge to a new doc and view the pages of each section without issue
but
when asking to print specific records (i.e. 40-80) it prints a blank page
in
between and skips the odd numbered record. I am at a loss...any thoughts
would be appreciated.
