I think the problem is i have used ASK field or FILL-IN Field so it is taking
the 102.53 as text not numbers? could this be the case if so is there a way
around this i want the mail merge to promt me to fill in a number?

(watch the spaces and don't use smart quotes) should work. Don't forget each
pair of brackets {} is placed with CTRL+F9
If the bookmark Payment contains only a number ie 102.53 and not £102.53
then
{ Set x {Payment}}{ Set y { =INT({ x }) } }{ Set z { =({ x } - { y }) *
100 } }{ IF { y } 0 "{ y \*Cardtext \*Caps } Pound" }{ IF { y } 1
"s" }{ IF{ y } 0 "{ IF { z } 0 " and " " " }" }{ IF { z } 0 "{ z
\*Cardtext \*Caps } pence }

Sorry could you help me further. I set the word document with a
bookmark named "Payment" it set up to ask me for an amount, for
eample £102.53, I then tried to use your previous link to convert
into words but I couldn't get it to work
Are the x,y,z letters default or is this something i need to set up in
another field??
£ 102.53
{SET x 102.53}{SET y { =INT({x})}}{SET z {
=({x}-{y})*100}}{IF{y}0"{y\*Cardtext} Pound"}{IF{y}1
"s"}{IF{y}0"{IF{z}0" and " " "} "}{IF{z}0 "{z \*Cardtext}
pence"{IF{z}1 "s

Two queries
1) I need to create a furture date in word that is linked to a merge
field.
E.g the merge field i have creates a date, say, 28 February 2009 i
then want to create a future date that is 9 months in the future but
the last day of that month i.e 30 November 2009.
I also want to create a future date which is 9 months and one day,
is this possible to do using fields?
2) i need to convert number in to text using merge formating i.e
£105.25 to One Hundred and Five Pounds and Twenty Five Pence
