Merge field print instead of data.

I created a data base in Excel, created a letter in Word and went through the
steps of Mail Merge. My field shows the merge fields instead of my data. I
do not have the Field codes box checked. How do I correct this?

If the print-out shows the fields and not the content, Tools > options >
print > uncheck field codes controls this. if you are talking about the
merge document, ALT+F9 toggles the display. If neither, have you entered
fields or simply typed the entries?
