When I use the "Insert Merge Field" option in Mail Merge I have 95 new "AutoMergeField" fields.   I have deleted, the blank columns in the Excel data file and I have also used "Clear All" to attempt to clear them but Word still thinks there is something in the column.  The Excel data is in A1:AV68  but the Word File is look at A1:HZ104.   Is there a cache that needs to be cleared in WORD or other way to eliminate them?

Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks,
Jerry

Eliminate the AutoMergeField(s) in a Mail Merge Document

Microsoft Word is a commercial document editing program that is part of the Microsoft Office suite. It features numerous text-editing tools for creating richly formatted documents, along with tools for the use of macros in Word documents. Word's native file formats are denoted either by a .doc or .docx file extension. Plugins permitting the Windows versions of Word to read and write formats it does not natively support, such as the OpenDocument format (ODF) are available. Word can import and display images in common bitmap formats such as JPG and GIF. It can also be used to create and display simple line-art.
