Mail merge (Word97) only importing 1st 85 rows of info from Excel

[Guest]

I have over 200 client names etc to merge into a Word97 doc, but the merge
only picks up the first 85 clients. How do I get the rest of my clients
included?

May be something at these sites to give you an idea or two.

Are you running some sort of query on the data?

Are all the names on one sheet? Excel 97 needed the merge data on the first
sheet of the workbook. It had trouble with named ranges.

Gord,
I looked at the 3 links you provided and saw nothing out of the ordinary
with my Excel spreadsheet (data source).

In answer to your other questions:
I was not running any query on the data. Although using a filter, "all" rows
were displayed.

All the data needed is on the first tab of the workbook.

Would it help if I emailed you my data and the Word doc, so you could SEE my
problem. (I'm a very visual person.)

Thank you.
Kali
