Why does this not work anymore...

Excel data source - has column with dates and formatted as MMMM DD, yyyy

Had no problem merging before, but now word changes the date to dd/mm/yy

Only way around it is to edit the merge field code and add the date switch
for the format.

Been using these excel documents and merge templates for very long time and
had no problems with the date formats until now.

I changed regional settings, language, and date formats defaults, still
won't work without the switch.

Has there been some kind of update that has now caused this. Why is working
like this now.

Thanks
