Default Format Date Fields

Is there a way to format date fields in a Word Mail Merge document using a
MS Access data source? The field is formatted correctly in Access, but is
displayed wrong in Word.

Hi Brandon,

Is there a way to format date fields in a Word Mail Merge document using a
MS Access data source? The field is formatted correctly in Access, but is
displayed wrong in Word.

See the information on formatting in the MailMerge FAQ on my website. If this
is Word 2002 or 2003, also see that section.
