OK. I've read the posts but don't seem to find an answer for my problem.
I have created a Publisher file and set it up to run an Avery 5163 label.
I get a single lable to work with and that's fine. I want use the mail
merge feature to merge in data from my Access Database.
While I'm creating the label, I don't use the mail merge feature (haven't
even yet added the data source). I just want to see how it looks and feels.
So I put a dummy name (Jane Doe) on the label.
When I publish to Adobe .pdf (which is how I'm going to distribute the
labels), I get a full page of 10 labels to print.
BUT, when I add the data source, put in the mail merge fields to replace the
dummy Jane Doe, then I only get ONE label printed in the upper left corner of
the page. The other 9 are gone.
So I went back and cancelled the merge option, put back in Jane Doe and it
worked.
What am I doing wrong?
Why does it show me 10 lables when I DON'T have the mail merge on but only 1
label when I include the mail merge option?
