------- Additional comments from [email protected] Tue Jan 18 10:21:38 +0000 2011 ------- I had the same problem and by chance I found a thread mentioning that mail merge didn't work correctly if 'show field names' was checked on the 'view' tab. In my case this was not the issue, but having un-checked everything on the 'view tab' including 'field shading' and 'text boundaries' and also turned off automatic updating of fields in 'preferences - open office writer - general ' it now works correctly. I haven't had time to figure out exactly which of the changes solves the problem, but for now that's a workaround. There are sample documents attached to my dupe of this issue. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
