The source data looks like:
(716) 662-5025
in Excel.

I need to know what your source data looks like. Is it 10-digit numbers? Or
are there other characters?

It still didn't work. It gave me the same exact problem as before. Any
suggestions?

Numbers need zeroes. So try {MERGEFIELD PHONE \# "(000) 000-0000"}

I used the following field switch to format a 10-digit phone number:
{MERGEFIELD PHONE \# "(###) ###-####"} It worked in approx. 30% of
the
documents I merged. However, in the other 70%, it made a number that
originally looked like this: 716662-5025, turn into: 71 1637. What did
I
do
wrong???
I also tried removing the () and - from the mergefield, but the same
thing
happened.
