Yes I tried using CTRL+F9 but I'm not clear about how to do it. I have read
your tutorial and understand what's needed but I don't know how to make it
work! Some attempts are just ignored when I do ALT+F9, some show syntax
error when I do ALT+F9. Can you clarify the steps of how to use CTRL+F9?
Help...

Did you insert the field boundaries with CTRL+F9? Update the field after

I have data in an excel table such as .88 (field named Pct) which I
want displayed in mailmerge as 88%. I found an article on the web
which said to do the following:

{={MERGEFIELD Pct}*100\#"0%"}

This is giving me a syntax error. Can you help?
