Capitalizing LastName in File Folder labels created in mail merge

G

Guest

I can create file folder labels using Mail Merge from my Contacts in Outlook,
however the labels print out as "Smith, John" and I would like to capitalize
the surname only "SMITH, John".
I have tried formatting the LASTNAME in the pre-merged document label as a
capital, however the merged document still has the surname in Titlecase.
I am using Office 2003.

The formatting needs to be part of the merge field code. To seethe field codes, choose tools l Options in Word and on the View tab, check the Field Codes box. Then edit your Last. Name field so that it looks like this:

{MERGEFIELD "Last_Name" \* Upper \* MERGEFORMAT }
