New fields do not show in a merged letter when using Address B
Hi ?B?YW5nZWxhb2FrMjQ=?=,
I have created a field called Job Title in the data base. Data has been entered and under match fields I have matched the field Job Title to the entry Job Title that appears in the drop down list. In the Address Block the Company field is written _COMPANY_, and if I use this method to enter JOb_TITLE, the field name shows, when I complete the merge. The address lines shows as _STREET1_ and when I use this method nothing shows in the address. I can't get it to work in Word 2003. It's possible, since MS extended the formatting functionality to be more "country-aware", that the field simply will recognize no other fields anymore than those pre-determined for a country :-( Is there a special reason you'd like to use the AddressBlock, rather than inserting the merge fields individually (besides the addtional steps involved)?
