How can I stop Merged nos. from excel having 6-7 nos after decimal
I merged nos from an excel spreadsheet into a chart in a memo done in word.
I formatted the nos in excel to 0 or 2 decimal places but when they merge into excel I get 6-7 numbers after decimal and have to go in on each memo and delete the extra numbers. How can I get these extra decimal places not to come in when merging? |

How can I stop Merged nos. from excel having 6-7 nos after dec
I am having this same issue,,, sort of. I mail merging info from access into
a word doc. The zero's after the decimal are being left off. EX: if it is 68.30: 68.3 comes over, it the amount is 68.00: 68 comes over. Any thought on why this is happening???????
