Default decimals in mail merge using excel query

Hi

I've created a database in excel file to using mail merge on word processor.
However that on the excel file just shows 2 decimals place (on numbers with 2
decimals format) but it shows too many decimals in word mail merge. Can you
please help me to rid of that problem?
Regards
Gholam
