Hello,
I'm trying to get a date field from an excel file using mailmerge.
In the Excel File, the column is a reference to an other cell on an other
page.
Both fields are in date format.
When merging in the Word document, the date becomes 38736
I've tried to merge formatting {MERGEFIELD datefield \@ "dd mmmm yy"} but
it doens't change anything.
I can't understand why it doesn't work.
Please help, as I really need this feature.
Bob
