Default
The merge was recreated using the elements from your table in a new table with the correct merge fields inserted. The error in yours probably relates to the nested tables confusing the merge.

You might find it simpler to have a one row table, with no 'Next Record' fields and change the merge type to Directory. The attached is your original with the fieldnames changed and all rows except the first and the NEXT field removed. As a directory it too merges as intended.
