Default Word 2000 Macro not working properly w/merge

The compiler errors are probably attributable to the line

'Requires a reference to Microsoft DAO 3.# Object Library

From the VBA Editor Tools References, ensure that the above item is
checked.

I'm creating a word merge into a new doc. I have text fields that
aren't merging, so I looked for help and found this macro on MS
support that's suppose to fix it and have the merge retain any text
fields. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/211308/
I put it all in, and it works except on the 2nd page of the doc it
leaves the place holders. The doc is only two pages after the
merge, 3 before the merge, anyone know why the it creates text
fields on the first page, but not
on the second page?
