[QUOTE="Graham Mayor, post: 5599679"] It is simpler to create separate merges for front and back. The merge will not step back in the data to print the back of the card (the second page) with the data from the first card. If you want to merge into both the front and the back of the card, I would guess that one practical way would be to create a new data file with each block of four records duplicated (include blank records if your data file is not a multiple of 8 or the last sheet of the merge will be wrong), eg Record1 Record2 Record3 Record4 Record1 Record2 Record3 Record4 Record5 Record6 Record7 Record8 Record5 Record6 Record7 Record8 Record 9 blank blank blank Record 9 You could then create a new label document comprising two pages - set the document type to 'letter' and on the first page enter one side of the cards and on the second page enter the other side information. Add a next record field at the start of each cell except the first one on the first page. Propagation will not work so you will have to use copy and paste to create the other three 'labels' on each page. I don't have a printer which duplexes, but the method works in practice when merged to a new document. -- <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> Graham Mayor - Word MVP <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> [/QUOTE]
