You will need to have Windows regional settings configured to use a period
as a thousands separator, otherwise it is likely to be seen as a decimal
point. i.e. what you report to be happening. The alternative is to replace
the periods in the data file with whatever your regional setting has as
separator.

I have a mergefield with numbers using the period character as a
thousands separator (eg. the value "one thousand" is stored as
"1.000").

Trying to make an IF statement, I get problems with Word
understanding the value one thousand (1.000) as the number 1 (with 3
decimals):

I.e.
{ IF { MERGEFIELD L01b } 400 "Hi" "" }
shows nothing if the L01b value is above one thousand.

Any suggestions as to how I can fix this?
