When I create a mail merge in Word from Excel data, I often have a hard time
with records that have specific cell formatting. For example, I simply enter
0123456789 in an Excel cell but have phone number formatting to give me (012)
345-6789. This saves a ton of time on the Excel side. But, if I have a phone
number "merge field", the formatting is lost and the number reverts to
0123456789 in Word. Is there any way to freeze or maintain this kind of
formatting when doing a mail merge in Word pulling from Excel? This would
save me SO much time.
Thanks.
