WD2002: Decimal point added after mail merge

[cjkoontz]

Hi. I've got a mail merge doc where almost all the merged numeric fields show decimal points after I perform a mail merge (i.e., "3.").

I am using Word 2002, SP3. I am using an Access file to do the mail merge. The numeric fields have zero decimal places.

I have other mail merge docs that do the same thing, but none of those have that trailing decimal. What gives!

Don't know what is causing the fantom decimal points, but it appears they can be gotten rid of by explicitly using \#0 after the mergefield name.
