Is it possible to apply mathmatical functions to a number inserted by mail
merge.

eg. <<totaldue>> $1500.00
What I would like to due is <<totaldue>>*0.15. which would result in
$225.00.

Is this possible? If so how?

Use a calculated (formula) field eg

{ =({ Mergefield totaldue } * 0.15) \# ",$0.00" }

Set the field boundary pairs with Ctrl+F9
