Kevin

I am pulling information from an Excel file with calculated % field. I am
trying to format the merged field to the real percent. I am getting it as a
decimal point and know about a formulat to mulitply by 100. My problem, the
formula. Please help!

Something like

{ ={ MERGEFIELD myfield }*100 \#0 }

or

{ ={ MERGEFIELD myfield }*100 \#0.0 }

to display to 1 decimal place, where
- myfield is the name of the Excel column/field
- both pairs of {} are trhe special field code braces that you can enter
using ctrl-F9
