Mailmerge Word Formatting
I need to mailmerge and auto-format statutory cites (i.e. 30 TEX. ADMIN. CODE
§ 332.5) where the first letter in the words is 11 font and the remaining letters of the words are 8.8 font/small caps. Is there a way to do this? I have looked and only found \*CAPS. Thank you. |

Mailmerge Word Formatting
Not if all that string is coming from a single field. The only way to do
this (that I can think of) is to split the fields in the data file to derive the letters you wish to format with different fonts as separate fields, then reassemble the string by mergeing separately formatted fields - each with a \*charformat switch. You cannot format a single field with multiple text attributes. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org bhurta wrote: I need to mailmerge and auto-format statutory cites (i.e. 30 TEX.

Mailmerge Word Formatting
If I had just Tex. Admin. Code as a field as there a way I could use
something like \*CAPS and a format that applies to everything but the first letter of each word? "Graham Mayor" wrote: Not if all that string is coming from a single field.
