Default Merge Field Validation

Hi mdvespa,

Have you considered using Excel for. It sounds to me as if the auto-filter
option will take you where you want to go.

Again, I guess it depends on the nature of your source, but Excel is a very
flexible tool for importing, verifying, cleaning and exporting data.

Regards,

Shinano

Hi mdvespa,

You should test the data source for this. Whatever app you're using to create the data source should have the necessary tools.

I have a large mail merge in MS Word 2007. Is there a way to validate that
all fields are filled out for each address (other than doing a manual review)?
