Formatting A Number In Mail Merge

[Guest]

Hi all,

I created a document in Word that I am combining with and address file from
Excel. I get what I am looking for, except for the Zip Code field. In
Excel, I have the field formatted as a Zip Code (leading zeros), but when it
is included in Word, the leading zeros are gone - which will make the post
office people very unhappy!

How can I get the Zip Codes to print correctly?

Thank you in advance,

George
