Office 2007 Word Mail Merge text field cut off
I am using an Excel file for my data source. One of my text fields has 335
characters including spaces and is being cut off at 255 characters including spaces. I have checked "Confirm File Format Conversion on Open". but this has not resolved the issue as indicated in earlier versions of Office. Has anyone found a resolution to this issue in Office 2007? -- Delta Smith |

Have you tried the different methods of connecting to the data source that
are available when "Confirm File Format Conversion on Open" is checked? -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.

Yes, I have tried the various methods of connecting to the data source that
are available. However, these do not correct the issue. -- Delta Smith "Doug Robbins - Word MVP on news.microsof" wrote: Have you tried the different methods of connecting to the data source that are available when "Confirm File Format Conversion on Open" is checked? -- Hope this helps.

Try re-arranging your data so that the record with the 335 characters is the
first record in the data source. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.
