mail merge address block name format is wrong

[jewelb]

Word - Vista: Address block in mail merge, when I choose the format of
recipients name, instead of getting Mr John Doe and Mrs Jane Smith, I get:
'Doe Family'. I select the proper format from the drop down list, but Vista
changes it to 'Doe Family' in my mail merge. What am I doing/not doing???

Instead of using the Address Block, just insert the merge fields that you
want to use in the configuration that you want them.

Yes, I have been resorting to that. Once again we go backwards with Vista.
Another quirk for Billy Boy to fix! Thanks for your help anyway.

Don't blame that one on Vista. It had nothing to do with it.
