formatting fax number
How do you format a fax number so it includes the dashes? So, 617-521-4886
I looked on the website http://www.gmayor.com/formatting_word_fields.htm but could not find anything orin Word help either. I can format to get the spaces between the numbers but not the dashes too. Thanks, Courtney |

To get the dashes you have to quote them (actually, Graham covers this in
the section on that page about Zip codes): e.g. { MERGEFIELD myphonenumber \#"000'-'000'-'0000" } (This will only work if you always need the same format, as in US phone numbers) Peter Jamieson "CourtneyS" wrote in message ...
