See the "Dates: day/month reversed" item under the "Connection methods"
topic of the "Mail merge in Word 2002" section of fellow MVP Cindy Meister's website at http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindy...r/MergFram.htm -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis. Doug Robbins - Word MVP "geofbranch" wrote in message ...

Word Mailmerge
Thank you so much. This has solved a problem which started as soon as I
moved a mail merge from Access 97/Word 97 to Access 2003/Word 2003. Under 97 the date format that I had defined in Access was preserved automatically on mail merge, but lost when moving to 2003 versions.
