can anyone help me - please.

I am trying to mailmerge from an excel file in to word. BUT I want the
merged record to appear in cells with in a table. When I do this the first
record appears in every cell on page 1 and the second record on every cell
on page 2 etc. How do I get it to move to the next record for each cell ?

I'm not much of a mailmerge user, but whenever I've used it, I've used it to
create a separate document/label for each row in the excel database.

It sounds more like you don't mailmerge, but just to copy and paste the range
into your word file.

But this comes from an inexperienced mailmerger!

If you don't get better help, you may want to ask the same question down the
road in one of the MSWord newsgroups.

And what little I know (or can find out), comes from these two links:

http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/mailmerg.htm
http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/MailMerge

The first is from David McRitchie and the second is by Beth Melton and Dave
Rado.

You may be able to find out that it's possible and it's easy!
