Formatting in Word Document

I have correctly formatted two of my merge fields for percentages to the
correct number of decimal places using past advice I have gotten on this
newsgroup and a helpful field switch website.

However, my newfound confidence was blown when I entered the same syntax in
additional fields which need to be formatted the same way and when I toggle
back from the merge to results there is nothing in the field! I did not copy
and paste but retyped everything, inserted the delimeters with Cntrl 9 and
replaced with the correct field name. Everything is spelled correctly and is
spaced just as the previous two. Why could this field not be working and how
could I have been successful with the first two fields and not this one? Am
I missing something?

Thanks

Did you try updating the fields (F9) or previewing data from different
records in the data source? You probably did, so can you post the text of
your new field codes here, exactly as they appear when you see the field
code with the {} characters?
