Default How do I create a Field Code for Currency with a separator charact

I am in a table in Word and I am trying to format certain columns into
Currency with the "comma" for the seperator and a"$ sign" for the value. I
tried to do it through Field Codes but there is not a currency code. Can I
add one? If so. how? I tried to edit the REVNUM field code but I can not
get the "comma" separator for thousands to show.

Can anyone help?
Thanks!

Hi Mary,

You can manually add the switch to the field. To do this with the REVNUM
field:
.. select the field
.. press Shift-F9 to expose the field code. It should look like { REVNUM }
.. add '\# $,0.00;($,0.00)' to the end of the code, so that you've got {
REVNUM \# $,0.00;($,0.00)}
.. press F9 to update the field.

Cheers
