To override the truncating of characters when merging cells from Excel to Word that contain more than 255 characters.

2. Open the Tools menu and choose Options

3. Click the General tab and tick "Confirm conversion at open", click OK to accept

4. Re-open the Word document and re-create the Mail Merge - an extra step should appear that allows you to connect to the Excel Data via .DDE - choose this method

5. Re-set your filters/sort options
