Publisher mail merge next record

A classic request!

In a publisher mail merge, "Next Record" is a special field that allows you to move to the next record in the data source when you click on it. This is useful when you want to preview or print a large number of documents, one at a time.

Here's how to use "Next Record" in a publisher mail merge:

1. Open your Publisher document and go to the "Mailings" tab in the ribbon.
2. Click on the "Select Recipients" button and choose your data source (e.g., an Excel spreadsheet or a database).
3. In your document, place your cursor where you want to insert the next record.
4. Go to the "Insert" tab in the ribbon and click on "Field" > "More Fields".
5. In the "Field Names" dialog box, scroll down and select "Next Record".
6. Click "OK" to insert the field.
7. When you click on the "Next Record" field, Publisher will move to the next record in your data source and update the fields in your document accordingly.

Tips:

• You can use "Next Record" multiple times in your document to move to the next record each time you click on it.
• If you want to move to the previous record, you can use the "Previous Record" field instead.
• You can also use other special fields like "Record Number" to display the current record number or "Record Count" to display the total number of records in your data source.
