I have a mail merge document created in word2000 and converted to word 2003.
The variables come from a proceedure in foxpro8.
The proceedure uses chr(10)+chr(13) for line feed and carriage return.
When the document prints a small square prints where the carriage return
should be. What should I do to correct this.
Also when in word 2003 if I type a word hold down Alt 1013 (typed on the
number pad) a small square appears.
No carriage return.
Please help
thanks

1. In Word, you should use only Chr$(13) in text being imported.

2. The correct keyboard shortcut for a carriage return in Word is to press
ENTER. Otherwise, in order to type in Chr(13) use Alt + 013 (no 1 at the
beginning).
