MS Office Forum / Word / Mailmerge and Fax / August 2005Word 2000 Sp3 Jap Unicode CVS + Word
Dearl All, I have a Japanese word doc which opens up just fine. When I choose a Unicode CVS file as the datasource I am not prompted for the Confirm Conversion screen so that I can choose unicode and thus the Japanese Unicode merge text comes out as garbage and I receive and invalid merge field error. Interestingly, when I right click on the cvs file and open with word it does prompt at this magical "confirm conversion" dialog box. This document works just fine in word 2003, and interestingly on one of about 20 machines outfitted with the same Office 2000 SP3 setup. I do not see a difference between the 20 and this one machine. Anyone with ! for reading this! Hi =?Utf-8?B?R2VuZQ==?=, > I have a Japanese word doc which opens up just fine.

If not, try and see if that helps.

I do indeed have that checked, but it does not work. Perhaps there is a registry entry that I can modify to enforce this?

(You'll probably need to use a newsreader to access that group, such as Outlook Express.) Just to the user working, until you can track down the difference: try opening the file in Word and saving as a Word document (*.doc). Then link that in as the data source. > > > I have a Japanese word doc which opens up just fine.
