Hi all,

I developed a spreadsheet in Windows Excel 2003 and am trying to get it to run in Mac:Office 2004 on OS X. I have some report templates in Word that suck the data out of the spreadsheet using Mail Merge in Windows (Data Merge in MacOS). Sometimes the fields come over truncated, or worse they come over with u_n_d_e_r_s_c_o_r_e_s between every letter in the merge field. These underscores are NOT on the Excel side, they appear after a merge. I have never seen anything like it. Does anyone have any experience with this? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Andy
