merge fields fail to slide

I populate some fields from a relational database in a second database, e.g. first name, last name. When I try to make merge fields out of them in a form letter, they read in the layout mode <>, <>.

The fields print fine in the browse mode, but when I try to slide the fields together in the slide/print window, they refuse to slide. I select both of them with shift/click or a lasso; they both highlight, but when I look at the browse version, they are not slid. The are formatted to the left.

Help please

Sliding only works in the preview or print modes.
