I have a word document that has specific numbers that are linked to an excel
spreadsheet. However, when I try to update these numbers (they are set to
format the same as the word document), the system creates a new line for
them. It looks like the following before I update -

Sales were $50,000 this year.

After I update -

Sales were
$50,000
this year.

How do I get it to stay on the same line???

When you use Paste Special to paste/link the data into the Word document,
select the RTF Text option.
