Format Word Table or Merge with Dollars or Percents

[B Hall]

How do you merge information from Access to Word mail
merge and have it show up as formatted such as Dollars or
Percents? Or How do you format information in a Word
table as dollars or percents?

 

[Suzanne S. Barnhill]

See Word's Help under the topic "Numeric Picture (\#) field switch." You can
add this switch to your merge field.
