Unfortunately this is because of an error introduced in Word 2003 SP3. It
has been reported, but I don't know of a workaround or if/when it might be
fixed.

Hi,
I have an Access 2003 database that I am using as the record source in a
Word 2003 document. We are using the insert merge fields in the word file
with no problems. The record number field does not display more than 2
digits. You can go from records 1 to 99 and then when you right arrow the
100th record it displays 10 in the "Go to record" display on the mail
merge
toolbar. It correctly shows the 100 and beyond merge fields for the
records
in the document but, this confuses users of the file and I wondering if
there
was a fix for it. Thanks for your help.
