Not printing 0 in zipcodes from excel spreadsheet.

When I merge into labels in word it is not printing the 0 of the zipcodes
that start with a 0. I have tried putting a ' in front of it.

Thanks, Christy

Did you put the apostrophe in the data in excel?

'01234

I've don't think I've seen that fail with mailmerge.

But....

There's an article on the Microsoft web site that might help you:

And if you prefer the old Mail Merge helper, Word MVP Suzanne Barnhill
has instructions here:

about half way down the page.
