Default same field, different value

I have an Excel spreadsheet with data I want to insert into a Word mailmerge
document (set to a "directory"). I'm printing the output on 3" X 5" cards,
and I want two different records displayed on each card, that is, on the
top, data for user1, on the bottom, data for user2, etc, for about 100
users. The problem is that the same person's data is being displayed on the
top and bottom of the card. This must be simple to fix, but I haven't
figured out how to do it.
Thanks

Insert a next record field at the start of the lower part of the card.
