Windows Contacts Mail Merge Address Labels - Multi Line Addresses
Dear All,
I want to complete a mail merge in word to print out address labels. The addressing data has been entered via windows contacts on a vista pc. Following the prescribed method I have exported the contacts to a CSV file. Imported that to an Excel Sheet and completed the usual merge processes. The problem lies with addresses containing 2 or more lines with in the Windows Contacts. These get exported in the following format name,"address line1 address line2",state etc etc When imported into the Excel sheet we then get r1 name address line1 r2 address line2 Which obviously then fails to merge correctly. I have manually edited the CSV and the Excel files to compensate for this and get a successful merge. But this seems like hard work. Surely other users have multi line addresses and want to use this data in word. Please can some one advise. -- JohnMike |
