Default Merging Excel Data into Word

Hi

I use Word and Excel XP and when we merge dates from an Excel doc into Word,
it puts the date in an American format for some reason even though the
formatting is Australian. Regional settings are set to Australian.

I have managed to edit the field in Word to change the date but was hoping
that someone would know why it is behaving like this so I can stop it from
happening?

We also have problems with some of the forumlas. For example, we might use
the currency formula which has two decimal places (ie. $23.09) but it comes
into Word like 23.0258. Any ideas why this is happening?

Thank you in advance.

Kylie
