WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, use one of the following methods appropriate for your situation:
In Microsoft Excel
To ensure that Direct Mail Manager interprets your postal code fields as text, type an apostrophe (') before the postal code. For example, in Excel when you type the postal code for an address (for example, 98052-6399), type
'98052-6399.
NOTE: Be sure to type the apostrophe when you type each address in your Excel address list. In Excel, the apostrophe (single quotation mark) is a formatting code.
For more information about formatting codes, click
Microsoft Excel Help on the
Help menu, type
apostrophe in the Office Assistant or
the Answer Wizard, and then click
Search to view the topics
returned.
In a Text Editor
To ensure that Direct Mail Manager interprets your postal code fields correctly when you import a text file (*.txt), make sure to enclose your address fields within quotation marks. For example, in a typical comma-separated (CSV) text file, make sure your address fields are enclosed within quotation marks:
"Name","Address","City","State","PostalCode"
