All the {} have to be the special "field code braces" that you can enter
using ctrl-F9, not the ones you can type on the keyboard. You can use
Alt-F9 to reveal/hide the field codes.

I am merging an Excel 2007 spreadsheet into Word 2007. The field is
{MERGEFIELD "FTE" * 100 \# "0.00%"} 100% merges as 1%; 67% merges as
.67%. What am I doing wrong?
