I have a sense that you can help me, but your answer didnt quite get it.
Heres the thing: I have an Excel spreadsheet with columns by name, address,
etc. One column is 5 digit zip codes. The apostrophe precedes most of the
zip codes, although most of them do not begin with zero.



Were using this spreadsheet in a mail merge; the initial rows of data merge
and display fine, and then the zip codes start to go crazy with dropping more
and more digits. Please help!!!!

mail merge to create letters; we have the apostrophe before the numeric text
so that the '0's will print, but something is happening and halfway through
the merge results the zip codes start losing digits! What can this be?
