Im merging information from an Excel document into a Word document, and I
have a question about date formats.

I know formatting isn't retained when data is merged into a document, so Id
like to know how to display the Excel date "December 7, 2007€� as "12/07€� in
the Word document.

Im using Office 2003 products.

Thank you.
