trying to address a variety of letters in Word 2007 from a Works database.
Most fields match but the postal codes does not. I set it to match. It works
fine. I also chech the box to let be matched on this computer. But after I
close the program, then relaunch it, the matching is lost & I'm back to
square one. Is there another setting somewhere or am I doing something wrong

If the matching that you are talking about is matching the fields in your
data source to the fields in the Address Block, instead of trying to do
that, just insert the fields from your data source into the mail merge main
document in the configuation that you want.
