Merging with an excel document
I have created my master document in word, selected the excel file to merge
with, and inserted my merge fields. When I merge the word document with the excel file the currency that is merging from excel to word no longer appears as currency, it appears as a regular number. Ex. Excel $18,002.06 - Word 18002.06 How can I fix this problem?
