Merging from Excel to Word

[Marlys]

When I merge from Excel to Word, the information that shows in Excel does not
come accross in the same format as is displayed in the Excel field such as
$72,000 in Excel shows as 72000 or March 7, 2007 shows as 3/7/07 in the
merged Word document. Can anyone help?

Thank you.

There's an article on the Microsoft web site that might help you:

The easy method is to copy and paste the data into a word file and open this
file as data source.
