access to word label merge
I have an inventory of about 400 books for a library for which I am making
labels. I created a database in Access and used this as my data source for the merge. When the merge was complete and I was ready to print, the first page contained the first 30 labels just like I needed, but each subsequent page contains most of the labels from the first page and just a few new ones. How can I make it so that each page of labels contains entirely new records? |

It sounds as if you are previewing the merge and printing from there - you
have to "complete the merge", either by merging to a new document and printing that, or merging to the printer. How to do that depends on the version of Word but in Word 2002/2003, you can enable the mailmerge toolbar in View-Toolbars and click the appropriate button (one of the ones near the right hand end).

It would be useful to consider creating a Labels Query / Report in Access,
and printing your Labels from there directly.
