Hi

Can someone please help with this really annoying mail merge formatting
problem. I have an Excel data source with a date showing the format
dd/mm/yyyy which is what I want. However, when I merge it into my word
document and preview it, the format comes out as m/d/yyyy

For example a date of 31/03/2005 (correct) comes out as 3/31/2005 (incorrect)

I am aware that the format of the the merged field can be changed by using
Alt + F9 which shows {MERGEFIELD "Clf_last_ye_date"}

Could someone please tell me what format I need to place in this to correct
the output of my date field.

Thanks very much
