how do i maintain the format with mail merge

SJ · November 20th, 2005, 12:08 PM posted to microsoft.public.word.mailmerge.fields

I have created some Word 2000 documents that merge with Excel spreadsheets.
Whe these are updated to Word 2003 the formating of the numbers is lost. How
do I restore the formatting and ensure themerge is as it used to be?
