[mso] Excel & Word

Hi All.

I have a field formatted special to display as telephone number.  The actual 
value is 1234567890. It looks like (123) 456-7890

When I use Word to merge this field it displays the actual value.

In Excel I tried to get the value so used functions left, mid and right in a 
text formatted field.  When I do that though what I see in the cell is the 
formula, not the result.

I tried the control + ` to switch between formula and value but that did not 
work.

HELP. please. thanks. /g
