Thanks for the quick response.
No, I am using excel.
The coloumn headings are inserted into the document using a drop down list.
It DOES inport the data, but not necessarily from the right column, and not
in the place that I request it. I tried narrowing down the problem by
starting over, and asking in for CONTACT for example, and after the mail
merge, what it inported was the Postal code column. Weird eh? I even went
so far as to reboot my computer. Nothing works. The merge keeps inporting
from the wrong column AND not following my requested locations IE (It
displays city, beside address, when I have clearly requested city on the line
below address)

Are you using the AddressBlock? If so, don't. Insert the fields that you

If you are merging from Outlook as sounds probable, see the "Mailmerge from
Outlook" item on fellow MVP Graham Mayor's website at:

Going crazy. I cannot seem to get the fields in the right place. I ask
for
'contact', it produces 'postal_code". I ask for 'city', "province"
and
it puts province on the next line. It's just doin its own thing. LOl.
I
have started from scratch at least 4 times. NO idea what I am doing
wrong.
