 +==== Advanced - Preview Section of Data Merge Manager ====
 +
 +The Mac version of Word has a nice Preview section of the Data Merge Manager toolbar which allows you to see individual records prior to printing or merging into a finished document.  To see the field values of the actual records, simply click the <html>&lt;&lt;&lt;&nbsp;&gt;&gt;&gt;</html> ABC icon, and click it again to turn it off and see the field names.  To see the complex data for merge fields, click the { a } icon, and click it again to turn it off.  Note that conditional rules may not be honored until your final document is created, so you will see commas and line breaks regardless of conditions while using the preview features.
