Default Office 2003 Mail merge not preserving currency format

Just upgraded to Office 2003 and have a number of letters that merge data
extracted from an Access database, which includes fields with currency and
dates. In Office 2000 these functions all worked but in Office 2003 the dates
seem ok but the currency just comes over as a plain number eg entry in
database 175 displayed in database as £175.00 but in the word doc is just
plain 175 where as in 2000 it appeared as £175.00. The fields in the database
are set as currency. Any ideas on how to overcome this and why it happens?
Many Thanks
