I am not aware of any problem with a Directory type mail merge on a Tablet
PC.

You don't need the Next Record with a directory type mail merge. As
Peter points out, all you need in the mail merge main document is:
Name ? ΒΆ
Hi Doug. When I tried this approach, the merge stopped after a single
line.
Something like this...
Name 1 Name 2 Name 3 Na
I wonder if this could have anythign to do with the known Merge bug that
exists on a Tablet PC?
Anyway, the EditReplace ^p with worked fine enough for me.
Thanks!
Click on the Show/Hide button (ΒΆ) to make sure that you have nothing else
in
the document.

I sort of found a way to make this work...
I did used the directory option and then merged my field into a single
column with a line break like this:
Name ?
Next Record
Then merged to a new document. Then, used Find/Replace to replace all
of
the
line breaks with a space instead.

How can I merge a field into a continuous paragraph using Office 2007?
I
have
a spreadsheet with a list of names in Column A. I would like my merge
to
flow
as a single paragraph on 8.5" x 11" sheet that automatically continues
onto
the next line. Listing the data in columns is not a viable option for
me
in
this case. Basically, I want something that looks like this:
Name 1 ? Name 2 ? Name 3 ? Name 4 ? Name 5
Name 6 ? Name 7 ? Name 8 ? Name 9 ? Name 10
...etc
Thanks!
