letters with mail merge so the merge but add footer with filename

[jed]

I am using the Mail Merge Wizard in Microsoft Word 2002 (10.6829.6830) SP3.

The wizard works OK to place Name and Address etc. in multiple letters using
a table in a word doc as the data source, but except for the first letter the
remainder of the letters have a footer containing the file-name and a page
number (1). I do not want this footer placed on any of my letters. How can I
turn off this “feature�

With the mail merge main document as the active document, select Page Setup
from the File menu and go to the Layout tab and uncheck the Different First
Page and/or Different Odd and Even boxes. Then remove any information that
appears in the Footer.

My mail merge main document was a single page document. I had to add
paragraph marks into a second page to get to a page that had data in the
footer even though the Different First Page and the Diffferent Odd and Even
boxes were not checked? I deleted the undesired footer data and then removed
the paragraph marks to return to a one page document.
Thanks
