Thanks David, somehow I didn't see that. I went manual, will see if I am willing to keep doing it that way I really don't want to be working with multiple documents - but might be worth the time save.

I'm trying to see if this is possible: Section one - four unique pages Section two - lined pages with a different image on each page - ideally data merge to create about 30 pages Section three - back to unique pages I've created a test document with relevant sections and set up the merge (merge layout, connected to data source, inserted merge fields). When I merge the data, I get the entire document created for as many records as are in the data file. So - section one, section two with a single page, section 3; section one, section two with a single page and the next image, section 3, etc. Is there a way to have the merge work only in a single section? I've search all over and dug through menus but can't see it. it might not exist. I realise I can work around this by creating section one as a separate doc, do the merge, then import those pages into the main doc. But then I might as well just duplicate the pages manually inside the main doc and insert the images manually - simpler to work with one doc than a master, a merged doc and the main doc. Has anyone tried anything like this successfully?
