Using a date field in mail merge
 

I am trying to use a date field in a mail merge of an Excel spreadsheet
with a Word document. Every time I do the merge the date on the merge
document comes out incorrectly. I have tried formatting the field in
the spreadsheet as text and all kinds of date format but it never comes
out in the merge document as I want it to be i.e. dd/mm/yy. Sometimes
it does not even resemble a date but is complete rubbish.

Any ideas would be most welcome.
