3 pages document shows 5 ???

[rlesperance]

Hi,

I have a 1 page document that I use as an master document for
merging. The document ends with a paragraph mark (no end of section
or end of page mark) and the satus bar indicates that it has only 1
section and 1 page. The data document contains 4 lines (title line
and 3 records lines to merge) separated by a paragraph mark.

When I merge the 2, the resulting document looks perfect in pageview
but print 5 pages :my 3 pages and an empty page at the 2nd and the 4th
page. The status bar at the bottom indicates that I have 5/5 pages.
When showing multiple pages layout in Word I see 3 pages. If I
preview my printing I see 5 pages.

Does somebody have any idea what is going wrong ?

If you merge to a new document, does that give any indication where the
error comes from (turn on formatting marks)?.
