I am mail merging a document, with Numeric 20.2 fields, I would like to
format the "mergefield" as $75.00 instead of $75 or $75.03215687

I think this is done with Table, Formula, but I cannot seem to get it to work.

HELP,

Steve

You need a formatting switch - in this case

{Mergefield fieldname \# "$,0.00" }
see http://www.gmayor.com/formatting_word_fields.htm
