MS Office Forum / Word / Mailmerge and Fax / July 2006merging labels with zipcode with additional four digits
I have been trying to merge an excel database containing the zipcode +4 add'l digits in Word to print labels. In the merge process when I choose "update all labels" after I have selected the merge fields in the first label, it is only updating the first row of labels, therefore not allowing me to complete the merge process. I also made sure the cells containing the zipcode+4 were defined as "special - zipcode+4" but that did not make a difference. As a test, I have successfully used the same database to merge letters and envelopes. The size of the labels did not make any difference. Any suggestions. If you don't insert the zipcode as one of the fields, does the merge work? Which version of Word/Excel? (If you happen to be using a tablet PC with Windows XP SP2 there is a known error where Word propagates labels only to the first row and a couple of labels on the last row - see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/898630/en-us Peter Jamieson >I have been trying to merge an excel database containing the zipcode +4 >add'l [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > envelopes.
