Merging from Access RTF to Word - missing records

[Lisa]

I've been trying to merge a RTF Access file in to Word to
create a directory and it keeps skipping every 10th
record... any suggestions?

It would be better to use the raw data from Access

I can't use the raw format because I have phone #'s and
without it being in a RTF format they don't transfer in
telephone # format, it's just 10 straight digits with no
distinction and it makes it hard to follow... any other
suggestions?

Word doesn't care about the data format - you can apply formatting to ensure
that it appears in the Word document as you require - see
http://www.gmayor.com/formatting_word_fields.htm; however this doesn't help
much with the missing records. What kind of merge is this. I suspect you
have an unwanted NEXT field in there somewhere e.g in the first cell of a
label merge.
