Merge #'s from Excel 2003 to Word 2003 in correct format?
Is there any way to properly merge numbers into a mail merge in the correct
format? We've got numbers that are in 8 places, we're wanting to convert to 2. No matter the format in Excel, it keeps all the decimal places. I've tried using the numeric picture field, but must be doing something wrong. HELP!!!! |

What does your numeric picture format look like?
It should be something like { MERGEFIELD mynumber \#0.00 } when you use Alt-F9 to show the "underlying field codes" -- Peter Jamieson http://tips.pjmsn.me.uk "Sharon!" wrote in message ...
