Mail merge into a table forcing multiple rows not multiple tables

D

I have created a mail merge from an Access database and need the results
displayed in a table. At the moment instead of getting 1 table with lots of
rows I'm getting lots of tables containing 1 row and each table is seperated
by a page break.

I want to end up with 1 tables containing lots of rows.

Unfortunately, the built in word merge only allows one record or row to be
sent to one word document.

about the only suggestion I can come up with is build your report as you
please, and then convert this resulting report or word document, or even
perhaps use a pdf document. (I guess I'm asking are you sure you actually
need a real word document, or can you perhaps use a report, or something
like a pdf?).

There's also a couple merge examples here, but they require bit of coding
skill to implement, but they do allow more than one record to be placed into
one document:

look on the left side for special merges. The one you want is

Multiple items per condition
