I have created a mail merge and have changed the ZIP Code to Post Code, for
the UK. I have used the match fields option, so Word knows to use the Post
Code, however, when i use the address block and the letters are printed, the
post code is always printed on the same line as the City.

Any idea why this happens???

thank you.

Are you using the AddressBlock field in your merge?
Ignore that and insert the individual fields that make up the address

Hi

yes i have been using the address block, i thought that was the quickest way
rather than inserting the fields individually.

Thank you.

It's only quicker if it does what you want :)
