I've formatted Excel cells for telephone numbers but when I try to merge this
information into a Word document I lose the formatting.  What am I missing?

The simplest wy to fix this short term is likely to be:
Check Word Tools|Options|General|"Confirm conversions at open", go through
the process of connecting to your data source again, and choose the DDE
option in the new dialog box that pops up after you have chosen the .xls
