Extra space in "Name" field when merged
When I merge data into the 'name' field, the first line of the address block,
there is an extra space in front of the name. The merge is coming from Excel and i have checked the formatting for the cells and it all appears fine..Thanks in advance |

Extra space in "Name" field when merged
Mark,
It's recommended that you do not use the Address Block feature when using Mail Merge. I prefer to insert each field separately, and set the spacing and line/paragraph format. The Address Block may be including a "Title" field, so when a record does not have a "title", it leaves a space. If you insert the fields separately, if a field does not have a value, the next field shifts to the left or up, and fills in the space, where the first field would have occupied. -- Add MS to your News Reader: news://msnews.microsoft.com Rich/rerat (RRR News) message rule Previous Text Snipped to Save Bandwidth When Appropriate "Mark" wrote in message ...
