Hello--

I've got a sizable Excel worksheet that's the source document for a
complex Word merge document. The Excel cells are formatted as dollar
amounts with two decimal places. But when the merge happens, some of
the resulting values in the Word document show with 0-12 decimal
places. Most of the affected fields are not calculations, but are
merely repositories for values that were input with two decimal places.

In Excel, I've tried the Tools/Options/Calculations/Precision as
Displayed, but that didn't resolve the problem. The resulting merge is
about 400 pages long, and last year we manually truncated the offending
cells, an activity we'd prefer not to repeat.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated--thanks!
