Default Mailmerge multiple Excel records for one name to a single Word Doc

I want to create a single Word 2007 invoice document for each customer from
an Excel worksheet, where there are multiple records for each customer. What
field codes, rules should be inserted in the Word invoice document to show
all records for each customer and then advance to the next customer?

Thanks!

Default Mailmerge multiple Excel records for one name to a single Word

Doug,

If I'm correctly understanding the description in your first link, this
solution would not list all the items (records) for a given customer on a
single (first) page. It would proceed in numerical order, starting with
record 1, and advance to the second invoice document when the customers name
changes in that field. Since the customers name is randomly spread
throughout the records, this would give me several invoices per customer,
whereas I want only one per customer.

To clarify, if customer A has records 1, 4, 8, 11, and 24, how would I set
up codes in a Word merge so that I could print a single invoice totaling
customer As records?

(The second link you gave is inaccessible due to webpage software updating.)

Again, thanks!

Whatever method you use, the data will have to be sorted by the Customer.
