Mail Merge with Word and Excel

[sprins]

I am very new to using this feature in Word. I am using Office 97 with
a database set up in Excel. I am trying to print address labels in
Word using this database (after being filtered) with mail merge. I am
able to get the filtered records to display in Word, but in my case the
14 records (labels) are printing out over a space of 8 pages. Does
anyone have a clue as to what I am doing wrong? I certainly don't and
this is driving me nuts. Thanks in advance. Scott

When you select your main document, select mailing
labels. (The choices are form letter, mailing labels and
catalog.) You will then be given a choice of a variety of
label styles. Most, if not all of them are in Avery
format but you are given enough information as to size and
number on a page to make an informed decision even if you
aren't using Avery compatible labels.

You will be asked to set up the merge fields for your
first label and the program will do the rest.

Good Luck
