Much Appreciated, exactly what I needed.

Add a charformat switch to the merge field (in place of the mergeformat
switch if present) and it will adopt the formatting of the text used for
the field.

I have merge document with xls source where one field is presented
bolded, and is not in the xls or word merge document formatted as
bold until automatically done once data is merged.

In all other merge fields, the merge text, i.e.

boldState/bold «HomeState»
boldZip Code/bold «HomeZip»

yet displays as:

boldState/bold GA
boldZip Code 31564/bold

Of course all this is in word and excel, so, my html above is just for
clarification of display sake.

No matter what change I make, the merged numerical zip code is
bolded. I have removed all bolding from the xls file, confirmed that
the cell in question is not bolded in the word template, nothing
changes.
I suppose the "start over" troubleshooting technique would be the
next step, but, if anyone is aware of a simpler "fix", it would be
greatly appreciated.
