Bulleting a merged "List"

B

BOBODD

I've tried searching the forums for this, but it seems to be an odd one.

My excel spreadsheet is using the function:
=IF(ISBLANK(Clients!A2),NA(),CONCATENATE((IF(ISNUMBER(Clients!$B2),CONCATENATE(Coversheet!$B$14,"
"),"")),(IF(ISNUMBER(Clients!$C2),CONCATENATE(Coversheet!$B$15,"
"),"")),(IF(ISNUMBER(Clients!$D2),CONCATENATE(Coversheet!$B$16,"
"),"")),(IF(ISNUMBER(Clients!$E2),CONCATENATE(Coversheet!$B$17,"
"),"")),(IF(ISNUMBER(Clients!$F2),CONCATENATE(Coversheet!$B$18,"
"),""))))

This is generating a list of presentation titles within a single cell. There
are Alt-Enter characters between each title returned so that I can merge the
list as a single field.

They are being merged into a word document as below:
"Presentations:<<presentations>>"

My question is how do I tab or indent the subsequent lines in the merged
list so that it is in line with the first entry?

The most certain way to achieve the desired result is to put a two column,
one row table in the mailmerge main document and put
the "Presentations:" and "<<presentations>>" in separate cells. Remover the
border form the table so that it does not show.

If the data returned by "<<presentations>>" was all in one paragraph, you
could achieve the result by formatting the paragraph with a hanging indent.
