I was told in the OO Writer form that to have a zip code appear in a mail merge document from a Calc spreadsheet the column where the zip codes are must be formated TEXT. I've tried to do this several times and nothing seems to work. One thing I do get is a column where all the cells have is "=" in them.

Can anyone give me a simple description of exactly how to format a column so the numbers in it will appear as the zip code in a mail merge document. All the other columns flow nicely into my mail merge document. Zip codes do not. Confused
