Creating a receipt (twice on the same page, to save space). Is it possible to
merge the same field name into the top receipt and the bottom receipt with
the same field name but different information. Would like to have names 1 & 2
on the respective receipts 1 & 2, but all on the same page.

You can use a { NEXT } field (it may look like Next Record ) to get Word
to move to the next record.

e.g., if you have two receipts on a single sheet of paper, and you want to
put fields A and B on each receipt, you could use

{ MERGEFIELD A }
{ MERGEFIELD B }
{ NEXT }
{ MERGEFIELD A }
{ MERGEFIELD B }

(or it may look like

A
B
Next record
A
B
)

You may be able to achieve what you want by inserting a Next Record
field before the first field that will display different information. This
however will only work if you have two records for each recipient and they
are sorted by recipient.
