Mail Merge in Word 2007

I am trying to mail merge to labels. I have followed the wizard several times but all I get is the first three addresses merged. I have used this function in previous years with no problem.

I have set up a list of recipients on another computer as I could not see how to do it from outlook on my Windows 8.1 in Outlook.

Download the MergeLabelFix add-in from the following page of my One Drive:

The file needs to be saved in the Word Startup folder.  In Windows 7, 8 or 8.1,the default location for that folder is

C:\Users\[User Name]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP

If you do not see the AppData folder: -

In Windows 8 and 8.1, in the File Explorer, click on Options on the View tab of the ribbon and then on the View tab in the dialog that appears and select the item "Show hidden files, folders, and drives".  While there, it is a good idea to uncheck the box of "Hide extensions for known file types".


You will need to re-start Word after installing the add-in.


The add-in contains code that will replace the faulty "Update Labels" utility.

Hope this helps,
