NewDeal Hot Tip 1908
NewWriteMeanwhile, here is a possible work around. If you use number formats or computed data in NewCalc or NewFile and the results do not look as you expect when performing a mail merge in NewWrite, make a backup copy of your NewCalc file and try this. Select the range of dates or other data in NewCalc and copy to the clipboard, paste the clipboard into Text File Editor, and add commas and quotes if necessary using Find/Replace to make the text file into a CSV file. Then import the CSV file into NewCalc and copy/paste it back into the original spreadsheet. The dates or calculated amounts are converted to text strings which will show up as desired in the merge.
