Default Consilidation of Mail Merge Recipients

My situation is this. I am trying to send email reminder invoices out
to multiple clients via a mail merge using Excel as the database of
choice. I currently have each invoice on a separate row with all of
the information provided.

The problem I run into is that for clients with multiple invoices, I
will send them an email for each invoice because of the line by line
setup of my Excel database. Is there a way to counteract this and
consolidate all of the data on one document for each email address I
send to? Thanks.

You are wanting to perform a "multiple items per condition (=key field)"
mailmerge which Word does not really have the ability to do:

See the "Group Multiple items for a single condition" item on fellow MVP

Or take a look at the following Knowledge Base Article
