Mail merge problem with currency field

edited September 2004 in General
Hi,

I am having problem with mail merging a currency field. It does not display
the '$' sign nor any trailing zeros in the decimals. I have tried setting
the currency property in the Dataset.Field or the ppPipeline.Field, I have
tried the DisplayFormat in both without luck. Now I have to use a
calculated stringfield. Is there a better way to handle this?

Thanks,
Ping Kam

    Hi Ping,

    Unfortunately, you cannot currently format the fields displayed in a Mail
    Merge RichText in ReportBuilder. It is on our to-do list for the next
    release to enhance this feature of ReportBuilder.
