Default Merging different records into one table from an excel file

Hi,


I have created a document in Word which is a log of different records - it
has a Title, a header row and underneath the header are blank rows, one for
each record.
I would like to be able to merge different records into the table from the
excel file.

I tried copying the fields into each row but it only merges the first record
onto each line.

Is there a way of merging different records onto each line?

If you can help me I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks so much,


Yvette.

Hi Yvette,

You can use Word's Catalogue/Directory Mailmerge facility for this (the terminolgy depends on the Word version). To see how, check
out my Word 97-2007 Catalogue/Directory Mailmerge Tutorial at:
http://www.wopr.com/index.php?showtopic=731107
or
http://www.gmayor.com/Zips/Catalogue%20Mailmerge.zip
Do read the tutorial before trying to use the mailmerge document included with it.
