Merge document and merge Word using Excel data does not display the result required in the merged document.

I have created a merge document and mail merge in word using an excel sheet spread as a data source.  Initially, no sign of £ showed in the document among other formatting problems.  I have (finally) found help explaining that I should use MS Excel via a DDE data sheets - I tried this but it seems to corrupt the data so that the column that contains say '1 names' contains "price data", "address" line contains the data of 'comments', making the e-mail merge nonsense.

If you use an alternative data source is CBO or something all NFL results (which wasn't shown on the worksheet) appear in the mail merge '0' both are unacceptable.

Surely I'm not the only person to meet these challenges is the software never tested before being sold where is the help manual, I tried to use the online help but will not accept my product key.  All solutions provide the most basic assistance but my documents are fairly complex something computers should be good.  I lost most of today on this.  Sometimes I think it would be faster to type these longhand things than to use a Microsoft product.

  • Merge data does not display the Images

    It's my first go with data merge well. I have my master put in place and have my csv file mélange successfully in a multi-page data merge document.

    For reference, I use ID CC and Windows 7

    My problem is data, image fusion.

    My csv is configured using the ' @image as a header, and I use a relative link in the sub domain (/image-folder/image.jpg)

    ID recognizes the header image and watch 'image' in the data source, but when I assign to my frame nothing appears. I have the mount on the frame.

    My path seems to be correct, as if I change, my image does not appear in the layers palette.

    I don't see the image when I hit "preview" in the data merge palette, or when I perform the fusion of data itself.

    Really need help!

    It turns out to not be a path problem, it seems that InDesign is incredibly buggy when dealing with the merger of data! Display my images were not purely because of the layout and I don't want to say there was a mistake in there, but move a text frame a few px left or right has resolved... I don't know why, unfortunately, but it was a beautiful day.

  • After installation or upgrade to Firefox 31, starting Firefox does not display the home page, personalize displays a blank page and the radio button does not work

    I am the admin of Windows for a University Department and install PC with Firefox all the time. This problem does not occur with every PC I would maintain, only a selection bit (model different laptops with Windows and update 1 8.1.) Until today, it has happened with the new user (with admin rights) accounts that I place on laptops for our staff. Today, this happened with the account administrator while setting up a new laptop. In all cases so far, I have install Windows from a registered image that was created by using sysprep.

    I tried many suggestions to reset Firefox, removing the profile of Firefox users, removing the Windows profile users, uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox, uninstall/reinstall of Firefox and the latest Java, but nothing helped. After uninstalling, I run an application to delete the caches and temporary files and even remove manually the keys to register HKLM\SOFTWARE\Mozilla and HKCU\SOFTWARE\Mozilla. I restart and make sure that the installation folder is deleted after uninstalling.

    Results are the same: after installing Firefox 31, the initial settings for migration, IE or Chrome pop up and after having clicked on the button finish, Firefox starts but does not display the home page of the new user, only a blank page. By clicking on the Options (3 bars) button does nothing. Right click in the appropriate box, the shortcut menu appears, so I can choose to customize, but which opens another tab with subject: Customize the URL and the page is blank. In the right click context menu, I can activate the menu bar and get options from that.

    My last attempt helped a little. I uninstalled Firefox 31, cleaned, removed the profile user Firefox, rebooted and then installed Firefox 30. Initial start-up runs and tells me that I'm not up-to-date and the works of button Options. But I can't always customize.

    Then I upgraded to Firefox 31, but then it's back to no start page, no options button and no customization. I can go down to 30 and get customize practically works again.

    Addon only is for McAfee Scriptscan to Firefox 15.1.0, just after installation is disabled.

    Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

  • The Task Manager does not display the process and tabs, even if the menu can be seen.

    Dear community, I had a serious problem on my task manager. It does not display the process and tabs, although the menu is visible. Also, any time I open a program or system of adjustment, some and especially no option can be seen since there is no specified words.

    Here is a link that you can see a screenshot on my problem.

    Thanks in advance for your help

    Original title: Task Manager problem

    I managed to solve the problem by looking for alternatives. Apparently, the problem was caused by a dat file (C:\windows\system32 folder called FNTCACHE.) (DAT) I deleted and it worked like a magic. Everything was normal again.
    Deleted it and the work of all the graphical interfaces as it should.

    Thanks for your answer, in any case. I just post the solution here if someone ever faced with such a question in the future.

  • CD\DVD player does not display the contents of the data DVD.

    CD\DVD player does not display the contents of the data DVD, but will display the content of the data CD.  What is happening on more than one PC, and it began when Active Directory GPOS have been applied for the PC.  If untying policies the problem persists.  What happens on DVD ROM and DVD RAM drives.  Scanning software has been added to these machines, think it might be an ASPI crush.  All these machines are XP SP3 running McAfee.  When you insert a DVD with data on this topic, the name of the drive in windows password DVD RAM drive to CD drive, and if you try and browse the DVD it displays as a blank CD.  I changed something on the PC with the policy but cannot understand what he.  Other identical PC can view the contents of the DVD very well, but they never had the same strategies.  Any ideas, thank you.

    How can I convert .ai files in jpeg format?  It seems that I am only able to get the .ai files and my Adobe Photo Elements program does not recognize the file.

    I want to continue my membership with Adobe, however, not if it requires some additional software purchase.

    For .ai files, you will need to use or know someone who uses Illustrator or another program compatible .ai to convert. If you access a page of image details before license you can see the file type.

    In the print menu, check "scale to fit media" under the Position and size of the device and then check out.

    If you want the area selected for printing, check "Print selected area" under the Position and size and specify the size.

  • includes server-side and don't use spry data may not

    I have a site using the side Server includes widely and now I am trying to include a page with a set of spry data and it does not show the data. When I open just the page (not by the side includes server) everything works perfectly.

    If someone has had this problem and is there a solution?
