Word Merge using Excel database

[Rachel]

I have an excel spreadsheet sorted by a specific field for
my database in my Word Merge. I am trying to use the "Next
Record If" feature to compare the next record with the
current one and if my specific field is the same, I want
it to combine the next data record into the current merge
document. If the next record is different, I want to
start a new merge document. So far it does work, but if
the next record is the same it just repeats the
information from the current data. How can I have only
unique records print per merge document.
