Default trouble with mail merge on postcards

I created some postcards for clients as a thank you for
your business and I want to use the client list I have
already created for other purposes. I already mail merged
it without any problems. The problem I do have is that
both postcards on the page have the same name on them. I
need each postcard to reflect a different record. If you
know how to do this I would appreciate it. Thanks.

Jesse, I assume you are using a two to a page postcards. To use the merge correctly
you need to setup your page this way, File, page setup, postcard, ½ page Letter. This
will print two to a page, but only one card will be on your screen. The merge will be
correct doing it this way.
