Default How do I mail merge dates using the British format?

I am trying to mail merge some start dates, when it previews in Word, any
date prior to the 13th of the month uses the American format. Is there any
way to overcome this?

See the "Dates: day/month reversed" item under the "Connection methods"
topic of the "Mail merge in Word 2002" section of fellow MVP Cindy
