On insert of Access recs into Word doc get unwanted Section Brk
I have used a Dbase merge to put Access records into a Word Document.
On inserting more than one record from the Database into the document I get a Section Break on Next Page after each separate record. I seem unable to find the Section Break to clear it. I have tried the usual methods but cannot find it in either the MERGEFIELD area or the body of the Word document. Can anyone help? |

Your post is a little sketchy, but I get the impression that you want to have
multiple records per page. It sounds like you set up for the merge by using the default setting for Letters, which creates a separate copy of your main doc for each recipient. Try doing it again using the option for Directory on the first step of the Mail Merge process in order to get the data listed. You could use Labels for that purpose as well, but may have some additional adjusting to do in the final doc.

Thanks for that. That is exactly what had happened - I had sidestepped the
Main Document Type and used the default Letters instead "CyberTaz" wrote: Your post is a little sketchy, but I get the impression that you want to have multiple records per page.
