format numbers in merged document
I created a table in a word document. I also created an excel document with
whole numbers. When I try to insert a merge field, the numbers come out with decimals. How do I make these numbers whole or with 1 decimal?

Saw that website yesterday and tried to make sense of it, but couldn't.
Today after your reply just started playing with the switches. Thanks for the help. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: See http://www.gmayor.com/formatting_word_fields.htm -- Suzanne S.

Alternatively, you can connect to Excel using DDE, which will preserve the
number formatting. See http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindy...002/MM2002.htm -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "confused" wrote in message ...
