Formatting Problem with Mail Merge
Yesterday I took an excel spreadsheet and used data in it to create labels in
Word using mail merge. My printer cartridge needed to be changed part way through and as such, some of my labels did not print. Today, I tried using my original document to copy the items that need to be created into labels and pasted them into a new document. I then tried using this "new" document to create my ;abels. My problem is that the Identification #'s are not showing up correctly. Instead of a number reading: 50275548, it will read something like: 5.02755e+007. I have made sure that the font is the same in the excel spreadsheet as it is in the word doc, but it still comes up "corrupted". Any help is greatly appreciated--I am in a crunch!!! |

Formatting Problem with Mail Merge
You would have saved yourself much grief if you simply re-merged the missing
labels from the original. You can select which labels to merge as part of the process - see http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_lab...th_word_xp.htm -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org WhiteS wrote: Yesterday I took an excel spreadsheet and used data in it to create labels in Word using mail merge.
