I am revising a form (*.dot) All fill in fields have been
formatted with a custom style that specifies Arial, 9pt.
bold. There are three date fields that are set to the
short date format (mm/dd/yy). As you enter the date in the
date field, if you type the long date, the formatting
changes as word converts it to the short date format. It
acts like the style is lost. Is there someway to stop this
without changing the date field to the long date format?
