Merging access date data into word

A

Alistair

I am using office xp pro. I am trying to merge various
fields from this database. Everything seems fine except
for one date field. Within the database the date format is
2 Aug 2004, however within word it is 8 Feb 2004, the day
and date have been switched. Why does this happen?

Ti fix this proble I have tried toggling the field code
within word and inserting the format switch that I usually
use with success, however this is not solving my problem.
Can someone please help?????
