Hi Ethanflux,

What you're asking for would require some fairly complex field coding, to test what's at the 4th, 9th & 14th character positions (plus however may other character positions might hold paragraph indicators). It'd be far simpler from a mailmerge & field coding standpoint to have separate columns in the data source for each of the variables.
