Default How do I use field codes to format a number into currency?

Doug, I kept searching for more answers and found the same information and
tried it again, and it worked.

Thanks - no need to reply back.

I would like to format my numbers in a mail merge to be shown as Currency
so
with $ and 2 decimals. I know I can do this with a field code but can't
get
it to work.
