In the excel file use the following in anew column:
=RIGHT(A1,2)
Where A1 is the source cell.
The result will be text

Subject: [mso] Word Mailmerge
Is there a way that I can extract just the last 2 digits of a field in a
merge statement? I have a fieldname 'classof' exported from the main
database which comes across into excel as a four digit number e.g. 2006,
1967 etc. I only want to use the last two digits when producing name badges.
