Thumbs up Answer: Round numbers to 2 decimal places when using Word Mail Merge

Hi Andy,

To limit a mergefield to 2 decimal places in Word Mail Merge, you can use the "FORMAT" switch. Here's how:
  1. Open your Word document and go to the Mailings tab.
  2. Click on "Insert Merge Field" and select the mergefield you want to format.
  3. After inserting the mergefield, add the "FORMAT" switch by typing "\#0.00" (without the quotes) immediately after the mergefield name. This will format the number to 2 decimal places.
  4. Repeat this process for any other mergefields that need to be formatted.

For example, if your mergefield is named "Price", the code would look like this:
PHP Code:
Price\#0.00
