Extra linefeed using bookmarks

[John Sutton]

I have a merge document that uses includetext to conditionally place
text into the final document. I am using bookmarks to identify the
text chunks, and the final merged doucment has an extra linefeed after
each bookmarked section. I can find nothing in the help to indicate
that I have an option in this, and can delete nothing that gets rid of
the extra line and keep the text lined-up. Any thoughts or suggestions
welcome.

The last time I looked at this in detail, if you Includetexted from a Word
document (.doc) you got exactly what you bookmarked. If you Includetexted
using anything that required an "external" converter (i.e. one that is not
built into Word) such as an Excel .xls, you /always/ get an extra paragraph
mark of some kind, and there is no way to get rid of it.

So if your text source /is/ another Word document, can you let us know what
version of Word etc.? Or just despam my e-mail address and send me the docs.
if you can, and Ill have a look.

Peter, thanks for your response. I tried but was unsucessful in
despaming your e-mail address. I was trying to send the files in
question, you may mail to me directly if you like.
Thanks again
