mail merge labels

[Guest]

I am trying to create mailing labels. The data was originally from excel but
I have transferred this to a word table. I follow the merge wizard and all
seems well until I preview the labels. The labels have a duplicate country
field and address 1 field appears before first name last name. I have row
headers in place and the fields from the source data seem to be in the
correct order but for some reason the merge scrambles the fields! Help! I am
using Word and Excel from a Windows 2003 professional suite.

See where http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_labels_with_word_xp.htm differs
from what you have done.

It sounds as if you've inserted the merge fields in the wrong order. If
you're using Address Block, don't (since it doesn't appear to working
correctly); use the individual merge fields instead.
