Hi JohnB,

This is just off the top of my head, but I believe you can't use double hh.mm
when am/pm.

Word Help says the following when describing the format for a typical Switch
in a Time field:

{ TIME \@ "h am/pm" } displays "9 am" or "5 pm"

In my case Im using the following and the actual field value is 01.40:

{ Start_Time \@ "hh:mm am/pm" }

When I view the merged result I get:

01:40 a40/p40

It seems that the letter m in the am/pm statement is getting interpreted as
minute.
