Merge numbers as currency lining up digits

[Nicol]

Thanks for everyones help with merging numbers as currency but how do you set
it so they will line up correctly.

for example in my merge letter I have

$00,000
$0,000

How can i get it so the second line will line up with the first as far as
the decimal places?

Thanks
Nicol

Use a decimal tab and format the mergefield(s) with a switch thus
Tab >{Mergefield fieldname \# "$,0.00"}
The currency amounts will align to the decimal.
