How large of a field can be merged in a mail merge document? I am merging
from an Excel file and sometimes the amount of data is clipped off when
merged in the merged document.

There's a 255 character limit. There may be a way around it by shecking the
"Confirm conversions at open" box in ToolsOptionsGeneral and then when
attaching the data source to the mailmerge main documnet, selecting DDE as
the method of connection.
