Mail Merge

[Keri]

I had created a postcard where I could print four
postcards on one piece of cardstock. I had inserted merge
fiels containing the mailing info in each of the
four "places" where I wanted them positioned so that I
could cut the cardstock and use it as postcards. I had
somehow managed to create it so that when I merged the
data, a different name and address (is this the data
source?) showed up in each quarter of the sheet. I
recently that file and am trying to re-create it. But
now, I get one data source per each page, so that each
name w/ it's address is merged four times to one sheet.
Can anyone help me get it so that I can get four different
names w/ their addresses to go on each page???

You need to insert a <<Next record>> ({ NEXT }) field before the set of
fields for each postcard except the first. There are various ways to do it
but the simplest is to put the insertion point where the field should go,
use ctrl-F9 to insert the special field code braces {}, then type NEXT
between them.
