Please forgive me if this question has already been
answered. 306 pages is a lot of information to read. I
got through about 50 pages before my eyes gave out.
I am using Word 2000 for my main mailmerge document and
Excel 97 for its data document.
When I open the data document, the merged items are
formatted correctly -- exactly as they are in Excel.
However, when I close and save the Word file and open it
later, the number and time merges are formatted
improperly.
I fixed the number entry using a number switch. But, the
time entry displays the month, day and year along with the
time which includes the hours, minutes, seconds and AM or
PM. I've tried a variety of switch combinations with no
success. My Excel database has the time listed as 2:15
and that's how I want to see it in my Word document.
Is this possible? If so, how? I can constantly reopen the
data document but I'm trying to streamline my work, not
make it more cumbersome?
Thank you, V. Dalton
