Did you read the section titled Using the Sample Data File & Mailmerge Main Document in the tutorial document?

Absolutely. I guess I didn't get the fact that the code was actually in the tutorial. It was the "Viewing The Fields" section that I didn't grasp.

Been at this for a couple of days now. Just not getting it to do what I was hoping. From all the searching I have done, you appear to be the Guru.

I played with that simple example that uses the failing student/Teacher name example. Seems like that is the concept I need to follow but after trying numerous times, I could not get it to work. Something seems to be missing with the even paring of field code brackets. Or, I'm just an idiot.

I can't find the code that keeps printing records on one letter until the Key changes.

I also need a better understanding of how/where template text gets folded in to the coding.

Is your mailmerge main document configured for a Directory merge?
The field code provides for text both before and after the repeated records. If you expand the field code for the 'Using One Key' example from page 9 of the tutorial, except for the colouring, you'll see:
In the above, the:
• green content outputs whatever goes at the start of each letter.
• orange content outputs the repeated data.
• red content outputs whatever goes at the end of each letter (technically, {IF{MERGEFIELD State}<> 0 {QUOTE 12}} is part of that).
• blue QUOTE field generates the page breaks between letters.
• purple fields manage whatever you use as the KEY to indicate a change of grouping.
• black content does the housekeeping, pulling all the others together and ensuring you don't get output being generated at the wrong time.

OK. Thanks. I'll start playing with it again this morning. Just to make sure I understand, the "Repeated data" in the orange fields represents the multiple rows of data I have for each key?
