Rounding numbers

[GTNET]

I am merging from a dbf file that has a field were the dollar amount i
carried out 9 places because of sales taxes. Example $185.050000001
How can I make Word2003 change this to regular dollars and cents? T
round up to two places.

Also can you caculate in Word mail merge? Example: Balance field
credits field times sales tax?
Thank

I round by right clicking on the field, then toggling used the toggle field
code command. Then follow the instructions on

When you click update, you get the original field name back
