How do I mail merge 2 records on one page?

Question

I am doing 2 mailings per page. I can't get the mail merge to merge into 2 different addresses per page. It merges one same address for 2 mailings per page.

So I have 50 addresses to mail merge, and I am getting 50 pages. I want to make it into 25 pages with 2 addresses per page. Sorry I am not good at asking questions. I hope someone can help!

I am using MS Word.

Answer 1

Judging from what the Mail Merge Wizard does for pages of labels, I think you have to insert a Next Record field just before the second address. This works for Word XP (2002) and probably adjacent versions.



1. Put the insertion point (the cursor) before the second part of the page.

2. If you don't already have the Mail Merge menu up, right-click on any menu and put a check next to MailMerge.

3. Use the Insert Word Field list box to put a Next Record field in.



That should do it.



Good luck.

Well Dr. Bob, I'm not that savvy concerning computers but I typed in Word 2007 and that led me to a Microsoft Office page that seems to have what you need. Good luck!
