Formatting highlighted areas
And if you press Alt+F9, I would bet that you see things like { MERGEFIELD
fieldname }. That indicates that you have not actually executed the merge, but are simply previewing the results in the mergefields. If you execute the merge, there will be no fields to display the highlighting. You can however turn of the field highlighting (probably not recommended for you) via ToolsOptionsView. -- Hope this helps.
