merge from excel and formatting
I have fields in my excel document that include double spacing, etc. When I
export to Word, I loose that formatting. Can I fix this? (I asked this in the Excel section, but realized it may be a word function) Thanks! |

Can you spell out exactly what you mean by "double spacing" and how you
applied it?

Data consists of paragraphs seperated by blank lines, as below:
xxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxx xxxxxxx all in one cell. "Peter Jamieson" wrote: Can you spell out exactly what you mean by "double spacing" and how you applied it?

Hi rroswell86,
In a mailmerge, you get the data, not the formatting. Line feeds in an Excel cell are just that and do not represent paragraphs in Word - even if you copy the cell and paste it into Word manually, then convert the resulting cell from a table to text. -- Cheers macropod [Microsoft MVP - Word] "rroswell86" wrote in message ...
