Mailing labels print out multiple copies of each page

Starting with a spread sheet with names and address, and following the help to converth to an data base. The database looks correct with 119 names (Examples attached). Then folow the help instructions to create a label file. Choose the Averey 5160 letter size. Once teh document is created, Drag the field names, address, etc. to create the first field, including the next record. Click synchronize fileds. you now have one page of formatted labels. Choose print. say yes the mail merge dialog. I took the defaults, and choose to print. each page of names is printed 4 times. I think there is some embedded print code, since when I choose to print to a file instead of a printer, you get a seven page document, but the enven pages do not show in the writer (See attached example)
Created attachment 58818 [details] Initial spread sheet with names and address
Created attachment 58819 [details] The database created from importing the spread sheet data
Created attachment 58820 [details] Mailmerge document with fields setup
Created attachment 58821 [details] Out put from the mailmerge print function, choosing print to file
A further issue for the confusing page count. I couldn't found the older one to set this as duplicate.
