There's a lengthy "explanation" of this problem at

When merging an Excel spreadsheet to a word document there are columns
that
replace the Alpha letter of K to a zero. The first column works but 2
others
do not? Numbers work in these columns but the Alpha letters do not?
Format
is set to general just as it is in the first column.
If I place an additional line at the top of the Excel sheet and put a
Alpha
Letter in the first line then it reads the other numbers and letters
farther
down in the columns?
Any suggestions as to why this is happening?
