Mail Merge with Excel

[Sherry]

I am creating labels with Excel as my datasource. I have
two fields that are dates. One field merges fine. The
other field merges as a number instead of a date, i.e.,
05/05/04 merges as "38112". Help!!

Hi Sherry,

two fields that are dates. One field merges fine. The
other field merges as a number instead of a date, i.e.,
05/05/04 merges as "38112"

Which version of Word/Excel are we dealing with, here?
