Hi, I am trying to create address labels. There is a problem with the zip
code. My data source is an excel template. When I merge the data, the zip
code shows the 5 digit zip code with a .0 after it. Example - 11111 shows up
as 11111.0 I tried changing the format to text formatting, but that did not
work. Thanks!
