Default complicated mail merge is possible?

I have a following record set of
(data a1, c1 are all the same value However, b1, b2, ...b5 are all different)

COL1 COL2 COL3
==== ==== ====
a1 b1 c1
a1 b2 c1
a1 b3 c1
a1 b4 c1
a1 b5 c1



I want to do a Word Mail Merge that will output something like this below all on one page.

HEADER a1
BODY b1
BODY b2
BODY b3
BODY b4
BODY b5


FOOTER c1


Can someone please point me to the right direction on this?

Thank you,

Ched

From what you have posted, it appears you can use Word's Catalogue/Directory Mailmerge facility for this (the terminology depends on the Word version). To see how to do so with any mailmerge data source supported by Word, check out my Microsoft Word Catalogue/Directory Mailmerge Tutorial at:
http://windowssecrets.com/forums/sho...merge-Tutorial
or
http://www.gmayor.com/Zips/Catalogue%20Mailmerge.zip
See, especially, the topic 'Inserting Content After the Repeated Data'.
The tutorial covers everything from list creation to the insertion & calculation of values in multi-record tables in letters. Do read the tutorial before trying to use the mailmerge document included with it.

For some worked examples, see the attachments to the posts at:

Alternatively, you may want to try one of the Many-to-One Mail Merge add-ins, from:
Graham Mayor at http://www.gmayor.com/ManyToOne.htm; or
Doug Robbins at https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=5aedc...615E886B%21566

In addition to a 'Many to One' merge, the latter handles:
• Merge with Charts
• Duplex Merge
• Merge with FormFields
• Merge with Attachments
• Merge to Individual Documents
• Merge, Print and Staple
