Have just answered my own question to anyone who is interested. Just go back to where you think the field was and press "Shift + F9" ...hey presto. Still cant figure out how to do it permanently so any help appreciated.

ALT+F9 will toggle the display of all the fields in your document. The fact
that some fields eg conditional fields do not display in the merge document is normal. They don't contain information until the merge is completed. You can however toggle the display of fields against content by clicking the appropriate key on the merge toolbar - http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_lab...th_word_xp.htm -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Matty wrote: Have just answered my own question to anyone who is interested.
