It sounds to me like you are not actually executing the merge, just
previewing the results. You must execute the merge to either a printer or a
new document.
I would suggest that you activate the mailmerge toolbar by selecting
Toolbars from the View menu and then check the Mail Merge item in the list.
Then you use the fourth button from the right to merge to a new document or
the third from the right to merge directly to a printer.
