When you're getting the decimal displays, are these in the mailmerge main document when previewing the merge, or in the output document after the merge has executed? The behaviour I see is that the previews display the decimals but the merged output displays the formatted times.

Something else you need to consider concerns your headers & footers. With the code in post #30, the process of removing the Section breaks also means you lose all the headers & footers except for the first one. However, when I look at the Letter merge output, I see that the pages have different headers & footers. If you want each table to have it's own header & footer, you'll need to either:
• retain the Letter merge; or
• move the page header & footer into the body of the mailmerge main document so they become the table header/footer.
