Incorrect Postnet Barcode in Merge

I am trying to get Word 2003 to print the entire Delivery
Point Barcode (Zip + Zip4 + DPBC)in a merge document, but
no matter how many of the Merge Fields I use, Word will
only produce a 5-digit based Postnet barcode. I was able
to accomplish this in Word 2000 using the following syntax;

{BARCODE "{MERGEFIELD ZIP}-{MERGEFIELD ZIP4}{MERGEFIELD
DPBC}}"\u}

produces the full Postnet Delivery Point Barcode.

Anyone have any ideas on how to get this to work in
Word2003???

I am not sure about the DPBC part of it, but to get the Zip + Zip4 to work,
you will have to use

{BARCODE {QUOTE {MERGEFIELD ZIP}"-"{MERGEFIELD ZIP4} } }

Quite likely

{BARCODE {QUOTE {MERGEFIELD ZIP}"-"{MERGEFIELD ZIP4}{MERGEFIELD DPBC} } }

will give the whole thing.
