Right click the row header 1
Use Insert to make a new row 1

Save the file
Now use Word Merge

In dialogs look for the button "Match Keys"

I am not a regular Excel 2003 user nor am I a regular WORD user. However,
I
have merged a list from Excel to label format in Word previously but now
cannot figure out what I'm doing wrong. I have looked and looked at the
HELP
items and they are of no help.

I guess my first question is... Do I not have to title/label/name or
whatever the two columns that I have completed in Excel? If so, please
tell
me how to do so. I only have columns A & B and want to simply name them
Number and Name.

Secondly, do I not have to also indicate these labels/titles/names,
whatever, at the WORD document? If so, once again please tell me how.

Thanks... my email is although the hotmail address may be
used...
