How do I maintain a field length in merged documents
In a merged document, on the same line I have 2 merged fields. However if the
field on the left of the document extends into the field on the right hand side, the right hand field ends up on another line. I want to tell the left sided field to print say only 20 characters, even if the field contains say 30 characters. |

How do I maintain a field length in merged documents
You cannot merge part of a field.
You could merge into a fixed width and height borderless table cell and that would restrict how much of the fields was viewable, but it would still all be merged. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org TM wrote: In a merged document, on the same line I have 2 merged fields.
