Publisher merge - increase characters and fields?

[simon h]

"Publisher can use an address list that contains up to 255
fields. Each field name can contain up to 64 characters".

How do I go about getting to a version of Publisher where
I can increase the number of database fields that
Publisher can handle, and also significantly increase the
no of characters in each field name?

My objective is to merge large financial reports from
Excel to Publisher

No chance at all.
Unlikely to ever be increased from the present limits.
You need to realise the Merge function in Publisher is basic and limited in
functionality.

Always post the version of Windows and Publisher you are using as so many
issues are OS and Publisher version specific.
