Mail Merge - Excel Data File to Word - Zip Code

[Jeevan]

- While using Word 2002 for a mail merge and using an
Excel 2002 data file with a column for Zip Codes, the
leading zero for the zip code doesn't appear..

- I couldn't find a patch that would fix it.

- What options do I have? I would prefer something easy.

Thanks.

Format the column in excel to text and this will keep the
zero in the merge.
