Thank you very much for your comments.
I don't want to use numeric formats because we are migrating documents from
Lotus Word Pro to MsWord. We have at least 100 documents in Word Pro with
Merge Fields. We are trying to migrate the documents in the simplest way. If
we use numeric formats we'll have to modificate every field, I think, and
this is a lot of work.
Until now we were merging the dbf with Word Pro and we hadn't any problem.
But I'll use numeric formats if there isn't other solution.
Thank you very much.
