I should also mention that I have attached the excel file as DDE.

I have an excel 2003 spreedsheet that I am using as a database in a Word 2003
mail merge. I have conditional formatting in the excel spreadsheet, basically
when someone types in a R it changes the box to RED. Is there any way to do
something similiar in the word table that stores the mail merge fields? It
brings the R into the word table but not the color. Thanks for the help!
