Currency
I'm trying to mail merge from Excel to Word and in the data source my money
fields have dollar signs and commas, but when I merge it through it loses those properties. So therefore $100,000 comes out looking like 100000. I'm using Word 2002 and Excel 2002 with the OS being W2K Pro. I've tried everything I can think of any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks Craig |

Thanks Graham, I was just wondering if we have any other options?
Maybe on Excel side? "Graham Mayor" wrote in message ...

This is the simplest way to do it. The alternative is as detailed in the
