When using {=({Mergefield fieldname} / 10000)}

I get a syntax error. Do I have to covert it to a numerical value in
some way before trying to divide it by 100000? It is pulling it from a
..txt file.

- Thanks,

Jonathan

I am mailmerging from a .txt data source and I want to format the

I want it to display 67.74 and that's it.

I can't figure out a way to tailor my field to meet my criteria.
Any ideas?
