I am currently using an Access Query as the data source.
What are the format function and IFF function and what do i need to do with
them?

I have also just noticed that for any dates where the day is less than 12
my
switch is not working correctly. {MERGEFIELD CRdate \@ "d-MMM-yy"
MERGEFORMAT} ie 2nd of september 2003 (entered in Access as 02/09/2003)
comes
into word as 9-Feb-03. For all other dates it is working fine.
Can some one help me with this too?
I am confused!

Cheers Alan

I am attempting to create a merge template between access 2002 & Word
2002. I
have several date fields where sometimes there is a date and some times
there
is no date. Word is currently inserting todays date in this field if it
is
blank. Is it possible to get this field to be blanked out when there is
no
data in the field in Access?
