Table format lost

[Edi]

I have created a word document with a table. The table data comes from a CSV
file.
Every time I refresh the table data with F9 all of the table formatting is
lost.

This is the code for the table

{ DATABASE \d “D:\\liste.csv \c““\s “SELECT COL1, COL2 FROM D:\\liste.csv“
\h }

if I press the keys ALT-F9


Can anybody help me please.

Thanks Edi

Hi =?Utf-8?B?RWRp?=,

I have created a word document with a table. The table data comes from a CSV
file.

lost.

This is the code for the table

{ DATABASE \d “D:\\liste.csv \c““\s “SELECT COL1, COL2 FROM D:\\liste.csv“
\h }

Try typing the \* MergeFormat switch in at the end of the Database field (just after the
\h switch, but make sure there's a space between the switches, and between the end of
the switch and the closing field bracket).

If that doesn help: What kind of formatting are you losing? Which version of Word do you
have?
