Unfortunately there is no RIGHT function associated with Word fields. If the
field contains a number (rather than numbers and letters) then you could
cobble something together along the lines of
{ SET AB { =({ Mergefield fieldname } / 10000 ) \# "0.0000"} } ***{ =({
AB } - { =INT({ AB }) }) * 10000 }
with the number of asterisks representing the missing leading numbers, but
if it is not a simple number, you will have to edit the data file.

Hi All,
I'd like to print just the last 4 numbers of an account number in a
mail merge letter (front fill the rest with asterisks). It seems like
it should be just as simple as the RIGHT function in Excel but by
necessity my source document has be a CSV text document so the
function has to take place in Word. Is this possible?
Thanks so much!
