How to edit decimal places in mail merge

In Microsoft Word, when using a mail merge, you can edit the decimal places in the merged fields by using the Format option. Here are the steps:

  1. Open your Word document and go to the "Mailings" tab in the ribbon.
  2. Click on the "Select Recipients" button and choose your recipient list.
  3. Click on the "Insert Merge Field" button and select the field you want to edit (e.g. "Total Amount").
  4. Right-click on the merged field and select "Format" from the context menu.
  5. In the "Format" dialog box, click on the "Number" tab.
  6. In the "Number" tab, click on the "Custom" button.
  7. In the "Custom Number Format" dialog box, enter the desired number of decimal places in the "Decimal places" field. For example, if you want to display 2 decimal places, enter 0.00.
  8. Click "OK" to close the "Custom Number Format" dialog box.
  9. Click "OK" to close the "Format" dialog box.
  10. The merged field should now display the desired number of decimal places.

Alternatively, you can also use the ROUND function in your mail merge field to round the value to a specific number of decimal places. For example:

=ROUND(Fields!TotalAmount, 2)

This will round the value in the TotalAmount field to 2 decimal places.

Note: Make sure to replace Fields!TotalAmount with the actual name of your mail merge field.
