If you are looking to have more than one record on a page, look into the <next record> command
Writer automatically assumes next record = next page when merging.

Adding <next record> after last field entered, begins repeat of fields on same page.

From menu <Insert><fields><other>, select "next record".

Suppose you have a set of fields. F1, F2 and F3 in a table. Add F1, F2 and F3 on every table row.
At the end of each row in the table, add <next record>  field after F3.

Hope this helps

Hi,

when producing MailMerge text documents, semi-automatic Page Breaks are
inserted which can only be removed manually one by one, but not "all together"
by e.g. selecting the whole document (Ctrl+A) and removing Page Breaks in the
Format Paragraph dialog.

XML shows that paragraphs with page breaks are different from paragraphs
without page breaks, they bear the name "P4":

<text:p text:style-name="P4"...

In the automatic styles section, P4 has the following property:

<style:style style:name="P4" ...
       <style:paragraph-properties style:page-number="1"/>...

which - I suppose - is responsible for the page break before this paragraph.

Questions:
- Can anybody tell me, why in these "automatic" type styles the page break
cannot be removed with Strg+A but only one by one?
- Can anybody give me a hint how to write a Macro which removes those page
breaks? (If it's possible at all - in Spreadsheets there seems to be a
function which does a similar job[1], but the described problem might need a
bit more sophisticated proceeding).

Thanks,
Nino
