Good Morning to all of you. I feel lucky to have found this site.

Here comes my question:

I am trying to create a mail merge for avery Labels (30 Labels per
sheet on a 8.5" x 11" paper) using Microsoft Word XP. I have my
recipient list in an Excel Document one recipient per row. Everything
goes well, but I finish going through the wizard, I only get one page
of labels or 30 recipients, when I should be getting at least 3 pages.

I am not very experience doing mail merger in Word, but this is killing
me. Thanks in advance!
 
Hi Coolboy,

Sounds like you have not actually executed the merge (Step 6 of the process
if you are using the mailmerge wizard). I would suggest however that from
the View menu, you select Toolbars and then turn on the Mail Merge toolbar
by selecting it. Then you will find buttons over on the right hand side of
the toolbar for executing the merge to various destinations - Printer, New
Document or Email.

Please post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the
benefit of others who may be interested. Unsolicited questions forwarded
directly to me will only be answered on a paid consulting basis.

Hope this helps
