There are two ways:
a. set up your merge to be a "Directory merge" (or "Catalog Merge" if you are using Word 2000 or earlier, or starting from Outlook). In this case, Word outputs record 2 immediately after record 1, with no page breaks, and so on. b. Edit|Copy whatever fields and text you have in your mail merge main document, and edit|paste at the end of your document. Then insert a { NEXT } field before the stuff you just pasted in (e.g. press ctrl-F9 to give you a pair of the special field braces { }, then type NEXT in between, so you have { NEXT } Option (a) is probably simpler if you just want as many records as you can get on each page. Option (b) is probably the way to go if you want a specific number of records on each page and/or you want different information printed for each record. Neither of these will let you do a "multiple records per condition" merge, where (for example) you have an invoive header, followed by a number of invoice detail records, then another header and so on. -- Peter Jamieson http://tips.pjmsn.me.uk "Terri" wrote in message ... I want to merge an access file with word and have more than one record on a page of paper. How do I get word to put more than one record on a page without pulling a new piece of paper. -- Terri |
