Default How do I retain the exel number format in my mail merge document?

I have formula's in Excel and merge the results in to a word document. I
need all results to retain the format of #.## and if the result cell is
empty, I want the merge field to be empty as well. I have tried several
switches but none of them accomplish all of my needs.
