How to format fields?

users
#1

Hi all,

I have quite a few certificates containing several data. I inserted them as fields (name, birth date etc.) There should also be the number of the certificate, which I formatted as follows: "aB-"0#"/2019". I expected that aB-01/2019 will appear on the first document but only figures 1,2 etc. appeared. What's gone wrong? In the past years I used the same formatting (with the then existing version of LO) and it worked.

Thanks for the help

What component of LO have you been using to do this? (Writer [mail merge], Calc, Base) More specifics would be nice in terms of the step you took to create the documents.

Sorry for the late answer. I use a Calc table as database and the document is written in Writer. I try to use mail merge to fill fields with data from the Calc table.
