Hello,
I am using office 2003, Word/Excel.
I am having trouble getting my text to display correctly in my merge
doc. The text displays as 0 but only values from 2 or 3 different
columns. The other text values (other columns) display correctly. I am
very confused. I have played with the formatting in excel even though I
understanding that word ignores that formatting (?) Previously I found
that the “confirm conversion at open” solved my problem up until it
stopped working. That is to say, word will no longer stay connected (?)
to my data source even though it does open my spreadsheet, it tells me
it cannot find it & gives me the option of going to get it. If I choose
to go get it from there I will continue to get the same results (cannot
find the data source). Instead, upon opening my word doc., I have to
choose “no” do not connect to my data source and start from the
beginning each time.
I hope that was clear enough .. I would greatly appreciate any
suggestions!
