Font problem
I open a letter in word 07 that i am merging with a excel file to personalize
the letter. Every thing goes well until i preview the name and address information that i merged onto the letter, and the font has changed? It appears to be doing some funny font substitution and i do not know why. Can you help? |

Font problem
Your best bet is as follows:
a. use Alt-F9 to show the field codes, so that you see stuff like { MERGEFIELD myfield } b. look at the end of each field. If there is something like \*Mergeformat, change it to \*Charformat. If you do not see \*Mergeformat, add \*Charformat so you see something like { MERGEFIELD myfield \*charformat } c. format the entire field with the font you want (and any other formatting you want). d. Use Alt-F9 again to view the field results, and try again. If necessary, select the field and update its result using F9. Peter Jamieson "REMS_CAN DO" REMS_CAN wrote in message ...
