Default Complex Merge

We have in an Excel 2003 file a list of 375 companies, who have employees the
subscribe to one of our services.
I need to generate a report from which I can print for each company their
employees.
Company x
John
Joe
Mary
......Page Break
Company y
Helen
Sally

etc
Additional information listed for each individual on the row with their name
also merged from the data list.
How can I do this? I have tried to set up a directory but cant get it to
work properly.

See fellow MVP Macropod's "Word 97-2007 Catalogue/Directory Mailmerge
Tutorial" at:

http://www.wopr.com/index.php?showtopic=731107

or

http://www.gmayor.com/Zips/Catalogue%20Mailmerge.zip

Do read the tutorial before trying to use the mailmerge document included
with it as you must get the mail merge main document set up exactly as
required.
