Print all records labels

I've several times carefully followed the directions for setting up a mail
merge with labels in MS Word vs 2003 (even though I know how to do this,
since I was having problems I started over from square one) and each time I
get the same result which is that the only records that print are 1-30. I
have it set up to print on a sheet of 30 labels. The only way I can print the
rest of the labels is to go to record 31 and print that page and so on.

I choose to print the entire document but get the same result each time -
only one page at a time will print.

Any ideas?

Thank you so much for your quick reply. All was looking good until I tried
to use the DDE option for my Excel list. I received the following error
message:
==================================
This error message can appear if you attempt to insert a database into a
Word document as an object or attach an Access data source to a Word
mail-merge main document.
This error message usually occurs if there is a problem communicating via
Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE).
Possible remedies are to reboot the system or attach the data source using
an alternative method (ODBC, DAO).
=================================
I am using an Excel list that I have successfully used many times in Word
2002.

Forget my post saying I had problems with an error message. I clicked ok
thinking that all was lost but I just went back to the merge process and all
was well. Thank you very much.

Why couldn't Microsoft have given the instructions that actually worked?
