Default HELP - Challenging Merge Question for Word 2003

Hi Doug - thanks for the reply. I really think this article could help me if
it provided the steps using Word 2003. The steps listed in the article seem
to be from an earlier version and I am unable to replicate them. Any ideas??

Hi, I'm trying to create a mailmerge using an excel spreadsheet. Within
the
spreadsheet I have primary and secondary records. They are sorted by a
code
and an indicator of Primary vs. Secondary. (All records for a code are
grouped together with Primary listed first.) The secondary record can be
as
little as no records or as many as 10 records. What I'd like to do is
merge
the Primary record into a form in Word, then merge by the Secondary
record(s)
in the same form. After the code changes, I want it to move on to the
next
form and begin again. Any ideas?

I.e.,
Record 1 - Primary #1
Record 2 - Secondary #1
Record 3 - Secondary #2

Next Page

Record #4 - Primary #2
Record #5 - Secondary #1

Next Page

Record #6 - Primary #3

Next Page

Record #7 - Primary #4
Record #8 - Secondary #1
Record #9 - Secondary #2
Record #10 - Secondary #3
Record #11 - Secondary #4

Next Page

(Etc.)
