Use Alt-F9 in Word to show the field codes, then change e.g.
{ MERGEFIELD mynumber }
to
{ MERGEFIELD mynumber \#0.00 }
(you can usually get rid of " \*Mergeformat " if you see that)

I am merging data from excel spreadsheet into a form in Word. The form has
cells in it that were create in excel.
The column of numbers in source excel is formated to 2 decimal places.
When
I merge data into the word document cells, the number extends out to 15
places.
I have tried reducing the cell size, but the cell expands when i merge the
data.
