Default How to tell Word how many of each label to merge?

I'm trying to merge pricing labels via word merge from data stored in an
excel worksheet. Along with the basic info such as product name, description
and price, I have a column '# of Labels'. Is there a way I can use this data
to tell the merge wizard how many of each label to merge?

For example, I'd like 20 labels for product A, 40 labels for product B, 80
labels for product C, and so on.

Thanks Much!

For random numbers of labels, then the simplest approach would be to change
(or create) the data source to reflect the appropriate number of records for
each label.
