Default Getting international addresses to format correctly in a mail merg

Don't use the Address Block. Just insert the individual merge fields that
you want to use in the configuration that YOU want them.

Outlook 2003 seems to understand how to format international address, but
when I do a mail merge for address labels they format incorrectly. The
particular problem is where the postal code goes for certain countries.
Here
is an example:

Outlook 2003 (correct):
5009 Cordoba
Argentina

Mail merge (incorrect):
Cordoba 5009
Argentina

I am using the insert address block to format the address and the, "Format
address according to the destination/region" checked.
