Since upgrading to Word 2003 my mail merge documents (database in excel 2003)
return a result without number separators (commas) even though they show in
the spreadsheet and appeared in merge results before the upgrade. Can anyone
help?

See:

You'll want something like the one we show for "invoice", though perhaps
without the dollar sign.

The data connection method changed in newer versions. It sucks now.
