subject: print list

      I've created a database (with Access) of clients. Database has 15 -
20 fields (will have more), but I want to print a list of only 4 fields, job 
#, date started, client company & contact name. I want to do this with Word, 
of course.
      I create a mail merge document with a title and column headings and
then set up either tabs or a table (I've done both) to insert these pieces of 
database information beneath the headings.
      Problem is that I get a section break after _each_ record printed.
I've looked at page layout and at the moment, simply cannot see where to 
eliminate these section breaks. (I'm using an Access database and a Word mail 
merge document successfully to print reports, but there I'm accessing only 
one record per mail merge document).
      If you have a suggestion, I would appreciate it (and I hope it
doesn't involve merging the info and then finding and deleting section breaks 
).
      I'd like to use Word rather than Access to print because I think it
will be more flexible, and thought it would be easier.
      thanks.......
      Regards..........
