mailmerge two records side by side
..NET getting to you g
I think that you meant "one row, two column" Regards, Doug Robbins - Word MVP "Cindy M -WordMVP-" wrote in message news:VA.00009639.01b3ecae@speedy... Hi Hcoms, I agree with Doug, either a label type or a catalog type would do the trick. Personally, I might choose the catalog type as then I wouldn't be getting a section break at the end of each page... Set up a two row, one-colum table and insert the mergefields. Now, position the cursor just before the first entry in the second cell, and then insert a NEXT field from the "Insert Word Field" toolbar button list. I am using word 2000 and presently i am using the catlog type of merge. My mail merge consists of a number of items such as title, name and address. As opposed to have a continous list of records i would like to show records in pairs , side by side. So instead of having one lot of records ( title,name and address) after the other i would like on the left hand side of the page ( left hand column in a table) to show the first record ( title,name and address) and on the right hand side show the next record. e.g. instead of record 1 record 2 record 3 Appearing one after the other i would like record 1 | record 2 record 3 | record 4 Cindy Meister INTER-Solutions, Switzerland http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister (last update Sep 30 2003) http://www.word.mvps.org This reply is posted in the Newsgroup; please post any follow question or reply in the newsgroup and not by e-mail :-) |
