Linked table returns numbers instead of text
I want to use a table that includes information from another table (in a
lookup column) for a mail merge. When I go to execute the mail merge, instead of giving the data from the merged field as text, it imports the numerical value of that field. How can I get the merged field to export the text instead of its value? |

What is the difference between the text and the numerical value of the
field? -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis. Doug Robbins - Word MVP "SarahMW" wrote in message ...
