How to perform a merge into a text box in a template?

I am trying to merge data into a text box in a downloaded MS raffle ticket
template. I am getting "...can't use ...NEXT RECORD...in comment...." Any
suggestions?

Set up the main document as a table with the cell dimensions as required for
you raffle tickets and insert a <<Next Record>> field before the first merge
field on all tickets on the main documnet except for the first one. Note,
if each ticket consists of two cells of the table (i.e. you have a two
column table with one cell in each row for the ticket and the other one for
the butt), you only need the <<Next Record>> field before the first merge
field of the first cell of each ticket).
