Hi,

I have a problem where when I mail merge an Excel 2003 file into Word 2003 I
lose my post codes unless I have my second line feature a letter rather than
a number. Some of my post codes are just numbers because some are in Nigeria
etc..

Has anyone else come across this problem and does any know of a proper fix
rather than just fudging it putting a fake address first?

If I use the same files on Office 2000 it works fine.

thanks,

Jeremy.

section of http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_lab...th_word_xp.htm
