Default Can't seem to get the correct syntax for Wine list mailmerge

I am attempting to create a wine list from an Excel file (see attachment for example) which I need to look something like the Mini_Wine_list.pdf (attached also)

Macropod was kind enough to point me in the direction of a tutorial that he had written which has been very helpful (see: http://windowssecrets.com/forums/sho...merge-Tutorial)

However, I can't seem to quite get things right, I have tried many different permutations, some with a little success, some with none, but I am clearly totally missing something.

I started with wine1.doc (attached) which listed the glasses of Champagne, I could then get it to list the White Wines by glass, but not insert the headings or even look faintly reasonable.

I then went to wine2.doc (attached) which....well.....hmmm!

Finally after a very long time I tried it in a table, wine3Table.doc (attached), Slightly better but totally stuck on how to proceed.

I would be very grateful if someone could point me in the right direction.

Thanks
