MS Office Forum / Word / Mailmerge and Fax / June 2004Multiple formats in mail merge label
I have Word 2003 and am building labels with data from Excel. I want some fields to be bold, others to be underlined, etc, and I am unable to get it to do so. I've even created what I want it to look like first, and then replaced formatted fields with mail merge fields, but it makes no difference. Any suggestions? Use Alt+F9 to toggle on the field codes in the mailmerge main documnet and inside the closing } of the fields that you want to format, add the \* charformat switch and then apply desired formatting to the M of the word MERGEFIELD.  SignaturePlease post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the benefit of others who may be interested. Unsolicited questions forwarded directly to me will only be answered on a paid consulting basis.

I must say the help screens in Word were less than helpful. Thanks again.

I think it's pretty obvious (like it stands out in CAPITAL LETTERS) how you need to modify my email address to be able to send a message to me.
