Default Mail Merge - 12:00:00 AM where expecting data

Hi

I'm mail merging from Excel into a Word template and find that some of
the fields are showing up in Word as 12:00:00 AM. This has happened to
me before and I put a test row in with cells of 256 characters in each
cell which overcame this. Now on a new data sheet it doesn't. I notice
on my Excel that the cells that don't work have no format - ie. in
format cells they are under General formatting but the sample shows as
#########. And I cannot get the sample to view this as text....

Help......
