Default Maintaining Formatting between Excel and Word

I have data in Excel 2007 that is set to automatically round to two decimal
places
and maintain currency formatting, but when I merge it into Word 2007, that
formatting is lost. Is there a way that this number formatting can be
maintained when merged to Word 2007?

I used to check the (confirm conversion at Open) box in the general options
on previous version. Any ideas?

You can still do that if you need the DDE connectivity but you have to check
Word 2007|Office Button|Word Options|Advanced|General|"Confirm File Format
conversion on open"
