The source document for the mail merge.

Links between text boxes are lost in merged document after Mail Merge.  The first text box in each merged document contains the expected text and a red arrow at the bottom.  All other frames in the merged documents are blank.  When I edit the merged documents, I can reestablish the links between frames and the text appears in the frames as expected.  I will attach the source document for merging and the address list file (an Excel spreadsheet with 50 lines in it).

Should have 50 lines to create 49 output documents with a name & address on p10 of each merged document.
