When i merge word with excel result i get some results with 8 caracters
behind the comma.

i have this comand set up: {MERGEFIELD"M_38_ZH"0,0}
In other fields the results is good but some fields the result comes as
for excample 5,7000000000000002
it should be 5,7

in excel the settings are good with 1 decimal etc etc..
I dont know it anymore HELP!!!

You need a formatting switch eg
{MERGEFIELD"M_38_ZH" \# "#,0"}
See http://www.gmayor.com/formatting_word_fields.htm
