new mail merge from the beginning

http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/mailmerg.htm http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/MailMerge The first is from David McRitchie and the second is by Beth Melton and Dave Rado. And if you notice problems with the formatting of data (like zipcodes)... Debra Dalgleish posted this: There's an article on the Microsoft web site that might help you: Answer Box: Numbers don't merge right in Word http://office.microsoft.com/en-ca/as...164951033.aspx And if you prefer the old Mail Merge helper, Word MVP Suzanne Barnhill has instructions he http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/C...ngWord2002.htm about half way down the page. ========== I often cheat instead of racking my brain. I'll insert another column (probably hidden!) and use: =text(a2,"ddmmyy") or =text(a2,"mm:ss.0") or =text(a2,"00000") (or whatever format I want) and use that field in the mailmerge.
