Hi QuickDraw,

Should be, yes. Example:

{ Mergefield Title \* Caps }

Use Alt+F9 to turn the field codes on/off so that you can
edit them. Press F9 or move to a different record to view the
result of the change.

And for any other such switches, look up in your help
directory under "field switches"

So can we assume that you tried e.g.

{ MERGEFIELD myfield \*Caps }

instead of

{ MERGEFIELD myfield }

?

If so, what went wrong? was the formatting unchanged? DId you remove any
\*Mergeformat or \*Charformat switches?
