Format merge fields

H

hermie

I am doing a mailmerge of 4 fields from an Access table. The merge works
fine. But now I want to see the mergeresult in Bold and underlined. I
changed the mergefields in Bold and underlined. The result is that is not
shows the fields in Bold and underlined?
What can cause this problem and would be the solution?

Use Alt+F9 to toggle on the display of the field codes and add a \*
charformat switch inside the closing } and then apply the desired formatting
to the M of Mergefield. Toggle off the display of the field codes and then
execute the merge and you should get what you want.
