Unwanted page break in mail merge

Split from this thread.

See http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/WorkWithSections.htm, especially the part titled "If you really want to delete the temporary section break ...".

First of all sorry for my English. In my word document I insert the list of items from Mail Merge code. For example i have 35 items which can be listed on a single page through Mail Merge code. When I reach 35th item, automatically page break applies and add a blank page. Although it should go to next page when the items list exceeded the page limit. How can I remove the hidden Break which I didnt insert and coming when the Mail Merge code insert the data. Any help will be appreciated.

I think you want to post this as a new question, it is on a very different topic and by doing so you'll get the widest range of answers. When you do, make sure to clarify whether you are actually running a mail merge or just putting together your main merge document. When you run a letter or envelope mailmerge, it will automatically insert a section break.
