How can I get whole text field from Excel source into MailMerge?
From the Tools menu in Word, select Options and then go to the General tab
and check the box against the "Confirm conversions at open" item. After you do this, when you attach the data source to the mail merge main document, you will be asked to specifiy the method by which the data should be attached. Try the different options. I think that it is the DDE option that will overcome your problem. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.
