Thanks Old Bruce. I think the issue was that I was trying to use the Data Merge Layout Tool and as I made a change on one side of the spread, it was made on the other side. I couldn't do any differentiation.

Thank you for the welcome and the response. I thought I was doing that, but I think the problem was that I was using the Data Merge Layout Tool and I should not have. Also, I had an empty page before the spread. Follow up question: This only seems to work if there is only one page in the document. Does this mean that I have to generate the Merge pages and then either create the other pages or copy the generated pages to a document that has the rest of the pages in it? For example, if I want to create a monthly spread, followed by weekly pages with the corresponding daily pages before the next weekly spread, etc, I would have to have three separate documents (one for monthly spreads, one for weekly spread and on for the daily spread and them move the generated pages around? Or is there a more efficient way to do this? Thank you again.

I am trying to create a data merge file with the same data on both pages of a spread, but want the layout to be a mirror image. For example, I would like to have the date field left justified near the left side of the left page of the spread and I would like the date field right justified and near the right edge on the right side of the spread. When I modify a field on one page of the spread the field on the other page moves in the same way. Another application would be to have an image and description, but have the image alternate between being on the left and on the right. How do I do create create a document where the merge file populates these situations correctly? Thank you in advance
