2 merges per page can it be done

[PCOR]

I know how to merge docucments.
You just tell it what you wnat where....
That is fine for a letter where you change the greeting,address etc

how you wou do the same for a very short note where you dont want to waste
papwer and wnat to have 2 on the same page but going to different people
In other words if I had a list on 100 names I want to be able to print that
on 50 sheets, cut in half and mail
Hel] & Thanks

 

[PCOR]

Thanks for the answer but I guess I did not explain myself to well.
Let say that I gave 20 names to merge into a short letter.
I want to merge #1 addresse AND # 2 addressee on the SAME page
Then the netx page would have the third and fourth addresse.
Can you help
Thanks

 

[PCOR]

Yes I did
and what I got was this

My number 1 addressee was in the top slot on page one.
The bottom of page one was exactly the same
I wanted No2 person to show up there
I can send you a copy if you like
Thanks again

Hi Pcor,

You missed the step about inserting a NEXT field at the
*beginning* of the bottom half of the page.

Go back and re-read my first message very carefully.
There's not one "extra" phrase in there - you need to use
every sentence.

My number 1 addressee was in the top slot on page one.
The bottom of page one was exactly the same
I wanted No2 person to show up there
