I try to make mail merge with 2 columns. I can use mail merge, so I have a source data in Excel. I prepared document with fields representing Excel data.It has two columns and I supposed that If I enter the end of column, the other record will continue in the next column. But that was fault. For better understanding here are some pictures:

If I tried to fill both columns, I have the same data in the both columns. Again the pictures:

Thank you for your ideas.

The record will continue in the same column unless you make your master take up the whole column or add a column break. The letters mail merge option will force a page break as it assumes you need them on another sheet. Try the directory one to keep everything on the same page.

So... I suggest, use the directory merge and then add a column break (as I think you have).

Does that help?
