Afternoon all!<br/>I foundd a great website for working with MS Office merge fields. <br/>http://www.gmayor.com/formatting_word_fields.htm<br/><br/>Contains helpful hints and tricks for you can use to get your Salesforce mail merge fields to output splendidly. <br/><br/>One example:<br/>My data shows: "MS. JANE DOE", yet I want my cover letter to merge these fields( ) to look like: "Ms. Jane Doe"<br/>Use mergefields and SWITCHES to switch your letters to lower case, then use another to raise the first letter of each...<br/><br/>{ \*Lower \*FirstCap}<br/><br/>Nice eh? <br/>There's so much more... thanks www.gmayor.com!<br/>-tjb<br/>#Drawloop #mergefields #switch

Be very deliberate when setting up hierarchies of Data Categories. Once you've set up a Category, you cannot change its Parent. This is not available as an Action and you may not delete the Category to recreate it in a different place in the hierarchy. <br/>Once you delete a Category, you cannot recreate it with the same name. #knowledge
