I'm using Windows 98 SE
MS Excel 2000
MS Word 2000

I'm trying to merge a sheet of mailing addresses from Excel to Word so as to print them.
All goes well until MS Word's wizard instructs me to "Insert Field".
I have a header row#1 on my Excel sheet and using columns A for Name,
Column B for street/po box, and Column C for City, State / Zip.

All I can get merged is:

<<Name>> <<Street_or_PO_Box>>
<<CityStateZip_Code>>

It merges exactly as shown above. When I inserted the fields, I put a space between each item and hit enter so as to have the Name on top, street under the name, and city state zip under the Street.

I have the document set up for Avery 8160 labels and they all 30 come out exactly as shown above.

Can someone advise me of my error/errors?

Thank you for your help.

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
If you click on your name, it brings up a small menu including an option to display all posts by that user.
Another option is the USER CP option at the top of the screen.
