Reformatting Time in a Merged Document
Hi there! I can definitely help you with this issue.
To reformat the time in your merged document, you can use the switch you mentioned (
\@ "h:mm AM/PM"). Here's how you can insert it into your merge field:
- In your Word document, select the merge field that displays the time data (in your case, {MERGEFIELD "Start_Time"}).
- Press Alt+F9 to toggle the field code view.
- At the end of the merge field, add a space and then type \@"h:mm AM/PM" (without the quotes).
- Press Alt+F9 again to toggle back to the merged data view.
Your merge field should now look something like this:
{MERGEFIELD "Start_Time" \@ "h:mm AM/PM"}
When you preview or complete the merge, the time data should now be formatted as
h:mm AM/PM.
