I have been using the mail merge function on Word to access data from our
Access database. When I use a quiery that I have created for a Postal Code
Area to show me the contact I have in the particular area I use the command
in the Like line "ML1*" to show all the fields where someone's post code
begins with ML1. When merging this information into Word for some reason it
does not allow the * command to be used and therefore wont show any of the
contacts I am wanting to send mail to.

Does anyone have a suggestion for solving this problem?
