Default How do I convert a date/time field in a merge field?

The DDDD does not have to be upper case - only the MMMM.
If you want the *result* upper case you need an additional switch
\@ "dddd MMMM d, yyyy" \*upper
conversely a \*lower switch would make the result all lower case.

Try using the following switch after the date mergefield:

\@ "DDDD MMMM dd, yyyy"

Take note for the day of the week I used four (4) capital "D"'s.
