Default How do I not drop the leading 0 in a zip code mail merge?

kevin@pcg,

Take a look 3/4 the way down at G. Mayor's website, "Formatting Word fields
with
switches", under the section for US Zip Codes:

In New Hampshire we have zip codes that start with '0' and it gets dropped
in
my mail merge process. I have the excel field labeled as a zip code field
and
it shows up there...
thanks, Kevin
