Just as I feared.......Not something the average computer user will EVER
understand. MS Mailmerge used to be so easy. I learned it way back in
Office 97. And this seems like it should be a perfectly easy issue to
resolve. Unfortunately, all I can say after reading the link is
???????????????????
Sorry for the rant and thanks for the effort anyhow.

I am using Excel as my data source. I have a field entitled "Zip Code"
which
is formatted as "Special -- 5 digit zip." Yet every time I attempt to
merge
it to Word and print labels, Mail Merge insists on adding ".0" to the end
of
each entry. How do I prevent this from hazppening???
