Catalog merge prints a '0' instead of my merged text
When using Publisher 2007 catalog merge with an excel data source, some of my
merged fields print as 0 instead of the source text. My excel spreadsheet column(s) are formatted as 'text'. The merging problem seems to occur when I have numbers in the excel column, particularly if the excel cell contains somethink like '10" to 20". I have tried using the single quote in excel field to designate the entry as text with no success. Any ideas?

It seems to me you can format the field as text without the quote. I advise
folks that use zip codes that start with a zero to format the field as text. It works for them. JoAnn Paules knows Excel, hopefully she'll be forthcoming with advice. -- Mary Sauer http://msauer.mvps.org/ "Kevin" wrote in message ...
