I have an issue with a regular job, that has not cropped up previously.
I have a database of names/addresses. In this months data I have one column that, when the info is imported into the InDesign file, is only displaying the digits contained in that column as opposed to all the text.
eg: if the entry is '46 High Street', only the digits '46' appear.
if the column has no digits say - 'School House', the figure '0' appears.
The only thing I've spotted is that when I open the offending item (it is a text type) with 'Content Object' editor, in the drop down list it shows the following:
'[#]Address'
all other columns in the database are preceded with '[T]'.
I wondered why this column, that in previous months data was preceded by [T], is now preceded with a [#], and if this is the cause of the problem, what I could do to change the [#] to a [T]?
