I am not sure what you mean. If you insert a mergefield from the toolbar you
will get something like
Fieldname
If you toggle the field codes (ALT+F9) you will see
{Mergefield Fieldname} Insert the switch before the final bracket
{Mergefield Fieldname \# "$,0.00"} then update the field.

data.
Thanks Dimitri

Is there a way to format numbers using mail merge.
Needs to lead with $.
Has to have a comma to indentify in the thounsands.
Can only have two digits after the decimal place.
Note: the merge list was created using vlookup.
