Word 2002 mail merge needs to show time in hh:mm format

D

DevilDogzMom

I am using Word 2002 as part of MS Works Suite with a Works database as the
mailmerge data source. When I merge my time fields Words uses the format
"h:m:s" unless the number is 2 digits (ie. 11:05PM shows as 11:5:0PM) At the
very least I need the leading zero in the minutes field. Tried to figure out
how to "force" the formatting of time to no avail. The formatting of the
source database does not carry over..... I have tried all things including
miliatary time. HELP!
Thanks!

Specifically for this one the switch is {Mergefield DATEFIELD \@ "h:mm
am/pm" }
