You need a formatting switch on the merge field - see
http://www.gmayor.com/formatting_word_fields.htm
In this instance the switch you want is \# ",0.00" (remove the comma if you
don't want the thousands separator)

I am merging an excel spreadsheet with a letter in word. The number
column in excel is coming across to word as 1621.33335899999 instead
of 1621.34. I have tried reformatting the column in excel, to no
avail. Any Suggestions?
