Default merge several fields from access query to singletable in word doc

I am trying to merge several fields from an Access query into one table in a
Word document. When I do this through mail merge, I get several documents
(equal to the number of records in my query). Should I be using a different
merge tool?

If you use a catalog (or in Word XP and later it is called directory) type
mailmerge main document in which you have a one row table into the cells of
which you insert the mergefields, when you execute the merge to a new
document, which is the only possible destination, that document will contain
a table with one row of data for each record in the data source.

Hope this helps.
