Getting to know Word 2002. Please help with the following:
Merging Excel Data into Word document, the excel data includes percents but
merges in different format.

The excel data located in column headed "% Empanelment" needs to merge to
document field named {MERGEFILED "M__Empanelment"} as a whole percent.

What format would I enter? Note, if you send me a link, I may still need
help as I am very new at Word, Thanks.
