: Multiple-page, varied-information Data Merge in InDesign? Can I use Data Merge in InDesign to input various information from a .cvs file into multiple pages of a resource directory? The idea

Can I use Data Merge in InDesign to input various information from a .cvs file into multiple pages of a resource directory?

The idea is sustainability for the customer... lay it out once and then they can update the information in Excel, run Data Merge in InDesign to update the directory in months and years to come, and not have to pay a designer each time they update information.

Or is there a more efficient way altogether for them to input that information into an InDesign file?

If the layout is simple enough this might work. It's a free script that uses datamerge to generate inline text in linked text frames.
