Hi Doug,
Mostly I think you'll find they're just called braces.
Cheers

Thanks, Dawn.
I have been looking for a name to call { } and Googling for French Brace
does turn a few (only a few mind you) hits that support the use of that
term.

Insert it after the second quote mark in your field, and before the
closing French brace.

:
I am merging data from an Excel worksheet into a Word document. Although
the
time data in Excel is formatted as h:mm AM/PM, the same time presented in
the
merged document appears as h:mm:ss AM/PM.
I think I need to use a switch in the merged field to reformat it to the
preferred h:mm AM/PM.
On the merge document, the field looks like this (after alt-f9) ....
{MERGEFIELD "Start_Time"}.
I do not know how or where to insert the switch (\@ "h:mm AM/PM)??
Thanks in advance for your help. A simple problem, but one I am
struggling
with.
