Problem with a Word merge using Excel

[Traci Gangl]

We're trying to create a directory using Word's merge
function with a data list that is in Excel. The problem
that we're experiencing is that it will only print
out/display every other record.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi Traci,

We're trying to create a directory using Word's merge

out/display every other record.

1. Please state the VERSION of Word that's involved

2. It sounds like there may be a NEXT field in there,
somewhere. If you press Alt+F9 do you see { NEXT }? If you
do, select and delete it. Then Alt+F9 again to go back to
the field result display.
