Why are names being duplicated when I merge?
Not enough information. Is this a random duplication? In which case you
probably have duplicated records? Is there any identifiable pattern? What type of merge is this? What Word version? Where is your data coming from? -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org ruffgirl21 wrote: I am trying to make name badges and when I merge I notice that some of the names are being duplicated. |

Why are names being duplicated when I merge?
The program is Word 2003. The names on the right hand column are being
duplicated on the next page. I am making name badges. I created my list in word. "Graham Mayor" wrote: Not enough information. Is this a random duplication?

In that case see http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_lab...th_word_xp.htm
(and maybe http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_graphics.htm) and see where what you are doing differs from that process. Name badges here should be setup as a label merge. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org ruffgirl21 wrote: The program is Word 2003.
