I am new to Access and would be pleased if someone could
help me.

Sometimes when data is imported to Word from Access,
phone numbers and other info is omitted from our ads.
There is also a problem with data being duplicated. To
the best of my knowledge, the data is exported to word
from a combo box. It does not appear to be a problem
with the length of the field since longer ads are
imported without a problem. Any help regarding this
matter would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Can you describe the situation in more detail? What are your "ads"? Are
you typing stuff into a combobox in order to export that stuff from
Access, or in order to specify what existing data should be exported?
What are the Word documents? What method is being used to export the
data?

In what circumstances is data omitted - or what is distinctive about the
data that's omitted? Likewise, for the data that's duplicated?
