how do I format a filed as a percent in MS Office Word mail me
Hello,
How do you do the alt-f9 in word 2007? I'm still having problems with the above code. I get an "!Undefiend Bookmark, MERGEFIEL" error. thanks -- mike "macropod" wrote: See: http://www.gmayor.com/formatting_word_fields.htm -- Cheers macropod [MVP - Microsoft Word] "lkitajima" wrote in message ... |

Hi Mike,
Word 2007 is no different in this respect. The error message suggest you haven't followed the instructions correctly. Try this approach: .. select your mergefield, which will look something like «Amount» .. press Ctrl-F9. You should now see something like { «Amount» } .. edit between the field braces so that you get the equivalent of {=«Amount»*100 \# "0%"} .. run your mailmerge -- Cheers macropod [MVP - Microsoft Word] "mike" wrote in message ...

how do I format a field as a percent in MS Office Word mail me
Hi Macropod,
The F Lock was off so the alt-F9 and ctrl-F9 where not working... Now that I figured that out my field looks like this: { MERGEFIELD Annual_Billing_Rate \# "#.###%" } When I insert the second set of brackets via ctrl-F9 and type in the correct equation and then do alt F9 my results come back blank. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? thanks -- mike "macropod" wrote: Hi Mike, Word 2007 is no different in this respect. The error message suggest you haven't followed the instructions correctly.
