Insertdatabase Does Not Work with Just 1 Record

[silvrwood]

I created a macro that propagates labels from a .csv file. I used this technique because the report could generate anywhere from 1 - 3000 labels, and just creating a mail merge doc that is linked to the dataset was only generating the same amount of labels as used in the original dataset. The dataset also has no header row, so I had to bring it into a table so that I could insert a header row for mail merge fields.

However, it turns out that Word cannot open the database when there is only one record.

Any suggestions on a work around for this eventuality?
