Default creating continuous numbered list from mail merge

My organization has a database that stores template forms in Word, where we
can export info from the database as needed into these Word docs. The Word
documents need to be formatted as numbered lists, but I cannot figure out how
to export them into one continuous list that is numbered consecutively. As it
stands there is only one entry per page, with each page starting over as
number 1.

I have read the comments about using "Directory" when doing a mail merge,
but this is not something I can do because our database is not an Excel list
or an Outlook contact list. There is no list until I search the specific
criteria needed and export it from our huge general database. It's not a
separate document.

Can anyone help me with this? I need to entries to export in a consecutively
numbered list that is continuous and does not only put one entry per page.
Please help!
