How to do a mail merge with a text box in starting document?

E

Emily

I'm trying to do a mail merge of labels, and I have a picture with a text box
over it for each label in the merge. The text that is already in the text
box (it is not a merge field) copies fine when I "update all labels," but the
fields that I would like to have merge remain the same. How do I do this?
I'm desperate!

You need to have a <<Next Record>> field before the first merge field in all
of the labels other than the first label in the mail merge main document.
