Default Calculations in a mergefield.

Actually, now that i've tried it, it's not working. Here's the text
below. I'm trying to divide a field by 5000

{ = ({MERGEFIELD CoverageLevel \# "#" \* MERGEFORMAT } \ 5000 }

and it says Syntax error. I've tried it formatting as dollars, and
without formatting, but it's either coming through as Syntax Error or
as 5000. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.
