If you just need to insert this value into a Word Document you can just store it as a Variable and insert it into the text.<br />
Please explain why it must be in a recorrdset to be inserted into a Word Document?<br />

<div>
<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I want to write some code like this:<br />
sSQL = &quot;SELECT Format([OrderValue],'0,000<wbr />.00') As Expr1 FROM...&quot;<br />
then open a recordset to write this value into a Word document.<br />
The problem here is the value of OrderValue changes everytime. <br />
If OrderValue = 500, in Word doc it will be 0,500.00 (extra 0 and comma)<br />
If OrderValue = 4000000, in Word doc it will be 4000,000.00 (lack of one comma)<br />
How to solve such problem?

Microsoft Word is a commercial document editing program that is part of the Microsoft Office suite. It features numerous text-editing tools for creating richly formatted documents, along with tools for the use of macros in Word documents. Word's native file formats are denoted either by a .doc or .docx file extension. Plugins permitting the Windows versions of Word to read and write formats it does not natively support, such as the OpenDocument format (ODF) are available. Word can import and display images in common bitmap formats such as JPG and GIF. It can also be used to create and display simple line-art.
