Either change the way Word connects to Excel - check Word
Tools|Options|General|"Confirm conversions at open", then go through the
process of connecting to your data source again, and choose the DDE option
when it is offered.

Or change your field code from e.g.

{ MERGEFIELD myfield \*Mergeformat }

to

{ MERGEFIELD myfield \#0 \*Mergeformat }
