I went through the above, and I've already done those parts right,
although I'm not dealing with the mail merge yet. It's not relevant at
this point, since I'm only dealing with the views in the spreadsheet at
the Beamer (I see that's the terminology I was looking for) at this point.

useful in sorting out what is going on. Let us know the results.
This one deals with data source and a database. I think my problem is
specific to a spreadsheet data source.
So, I'm still at a loss: why my Beamer table doesn't show 9-digit zip
codes and why changes I make in the Beamer don't show up in the
spreadsheet and visa versa.
I've tried changing the cell/column formats in the spreadsheet, and the
Beamer, recreating the data source many times.
I tried reproducing this with a simple spreadsheet.
I create a row with colums of "First Last Address City State Zip".
If the second row I enter has a number for Zip, like 80302, then
subsequent rows that I enter in the spreadsheet with a 9-digit Zip like
80302-1234 show up in the Beamer (after disconnecting and reconnecting,
but not after clicking refresh) but __the zip code cell is blank__.
If the second row I enter has a 9-digit entry for Zip, like 80302-1234,
then that one row shows up correctly in the Beamer, but then it gets
weird. I entered a third row, and I could not get it to show up in the
Beamer. That row did not appear after refreshing or
disconnect/reconnecting the data source. Then, I entered a fourth row,
and I got
Runtime Error!
R6025 - pure virtual function call
OOo died at that point.
I've attached my two spreadsheets. I don't know where the data source
information is stored. Probably not in each document.
Thanks,
