Default Merge introduces 0 instead of house number

I've got a large mailing list in Excel which I filter in order to print
labels. I create new excel documents then use them to print labels in Word.
With a small number of entries, when I try to print the labels, some of the
addresses suffer from the house number being replaced by a zero (0). There
seems to be no pattern. I've tried refomatting the list in Excel as plain
text, cutting and pasting the text only into a new document, re-typing new
entries. The house number and street name are in different columns in Excel.
When I filter by some criteria, when I merge into Word, I could have four
addresses on the same street and a few labels end up printing "0 Some Street".
For example:
12 Some St
34 Some St
Rose Cottage, 42 Some St
Apple House, 50 Some St

could print as:
12 Some St
0 Some St
Rose Cottage, 42 Some St
0 Some St

I can see no pattern, nor can I work out what's causing it. Any ideas?
Thanks.
