In some cases you may see incorrect output information with your merge fields or place holders because you are entering a URL Encoded field name.

Example: «Employee%5Fx003a%5FLast%5Fx0020%5FName»

Use the following tool to decode the field name: http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/dencoder/

The actual SharePoint list column internal name is ‘Employee_x003a_Last_x0020_Name’

You can also see the actual internal name on hover of the field from list settings in your browsers status area.
