So I am making a catalog of sorts. (Actually it is a Class Reunion book of
classmates)
I am merging data from a Excel database into the catalog.
Each item (Class-member) is to have its own page
I have set up a Publisher "form" where I have inserted the merge fields
where I would normally want them displayed.
My problem is some items in the database do not have all the fields filled
in. The Class-members opted to not fill them in.
Some will need more pictures inserted and text blocks will need to be moved
to accommodate that.
So, if I complete a merge and go to a page where I need to delete a merge
field (because of lack of data) all of the catalog pages drop that field
too.... not just the page I am editing.
Is there a way that after I complete a merge I can make each page separate
and editable without affecting the others?
Is there a way to "edit" individual merged text fields so I could, as an
example, wrap it about a picture without affecting other classmates pages?
Thanks!
