Default Mail Merge Inserting 0's

I am using a mail merge, merging from an excel file. The data in Excel
contains the word "Delete". For some reason when it pulls it through the
merge, the first 3 lines of the document insert 0's instead of the word
"Delete". Every entry thereafter pulls in just fine. Any ideas??

Check the validity of the data in the first three records in the Excel file.
Alternatively, use a conditional field
{IF {Mergefield fieldname} "0" "{Mergefield fieldname}"}
