I'm using Word 2000 and my hyperlinks and mail merge address label
fields don't display correctly. I'm sure it's some option or setting
that has been changed, but I just can't seem to find it.
First, when I type a hyperlink (in a normal non-mail merge document),
say www.msn.com, as soon as I complete typing it, it suddenly gets
displayed as "{HYPERLINK "http://www.msn.com"}". I was finally able
to get it to show as just www.msn.com by highlighting it and right
clicking on it and selecting "Toggle Field Codes".
A similar problem is occurring in a mail merge document I use to print
out addresses on envelopes. I have fields call NAME, ADDRESS1,
ADDRESS2, etc. When I view the envelope, instead of showing the
person's name and address I only see:
{MERGEFIELD NAME}
{MERGEFIELD ADDRESS1}
{MERGEFIELD ADDRESS2}
Again, if I highlight and right click "Toggle Field Codes", the actual
name and address appears. However, if I move to the next person, the
display problems occur once again on all the records. When I go to
print preview, the name and address are correctly displayed.
I never had these problems before so I'm just guessing that I
inadvertently changed the option that controls how these are
displayed. If anyone knows what I can do to make these display
properly without having to select "Toggle Field Codes" every time,
please let me know.
Thanks,
Tim
