Default how do i merge numbers from excel to word without them changing

Hi Tazz
Suggest you use a "helper column" to format the numbers as text using the
formula
=text(A1, "#.##") where A1 contains the number.
The number of #s after the decimal point decide how many decimal points you
want.
Now when you merge, use the new column instead of the old one.
