First row contains column headings from Excel
I have noticed in Word that when I try to set up a mail merge using either an
Excel file or a tab separated file as my data source, that... 1. even when I don't tick the box that says "First row contains column headings" it does believes that they are anyway. 2. I have a series of numbers as one of the columns. Word seems to put an "F" that is added to whichever number represents that column as my column heading. ie instead of "123456" it puts "F2". -- Thank You in Advance, Michael Anderson |
