Issue
When running a document package, the following error might occur:
Found a Begin FieldChar but no End!
Found a Begin FieldChar but no End!
Resolution
1. Verify all merge fields and tags in the document. For example:
IF Formula had quotes that were not used correctly
Ex: IF “>” = value “sentence” sentence
Correct ex: IF “>” = “value” “sentence” “sentence”
Correct ex: IF “>” = “value” “sentence” “sentence”
Field tags were not correctly inputted
Ex: >”)
Bad merge fields
Replace the bad merge fields.
2. When testing, If there are more than 1 document in the DDP, you will need to Clone the DDP and remove all the documents and test 1 at a time.
This error occurs when compiling the DDP. We do not know what document the issue occurs on.
3. This can also occur if a Text box is off the page.
Additional Information
This usually indicates that there are bad merge fields or tags in the document.
