truncated data when mail merge
I am trying to use mailmerge (Word/Excel) to create an auction catalog. It
works great EXCEPT for the longer descriptions which get cut off after so many characters. Is there a way I can merge the WHOLE description? If not I can go through and copy/paste the descriptions but it seems unnecessarily tedious... -- hbb |

For an explanation and some suggestions, see
http://tips.pjmsn.me.uk/t0003.htm Try the DDE route first if you haven't already. -- Hope this helps.
