Hi folks,

I have a question. I create a data source (database or Excel
spreadsheet) with 2 fields, name and salary. I define the salary
field as currency so that I can filter in the mail merge for people
above or below a particular salary band. So far so good....but all
the formatting disappears when I put the fields into a mail merge.
(eg currency symbols and I suspect commas as in £24,000).

Any solutions?

Many thanks,

Danny
