How do you get New England Zip codes to export all five digits?
I can't seem to get any New Englad Zip Codes to export all five digits - they
have a 0 (zero) at the front and it hold in excel but won't reproduce in Word. |

I'm basically lost. I don't know where to start. Do you have a screen capture
I could reference? I know how to do a mail merge but then it comes to the {} things, I dont know how to get there. I need to start from scratch on this one. Could you walk me through it?

Press Alt+F9. Your display will change from Zip to {Mergefield Zip}
Add the switch eg {Mergefield Zip \# "00000"} Press F9 to update then ALT+F9 to toggle the display back again If you need to create fields by hand the CTRL+F9 creates the brackets - the rest is types from the keyboard. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Lisa5015 wrote: I'm basically lost.
