Fantastic!. Thanks. I notice also that you can change the format in word to any of the available options in excel. To see the options go to the Excel home tab > format drop down box > more number format options > custom.

Formatting the date in word 2013 does not work using \@"dd mmm YYYY" you just get an error to state the field doesn't exist. Microsoft state to use DDE but all that does is give the OOPS SOMETHING WENT WRONG message to appear on opening for the second time.

So, rather than «LastPaidDate» you should be seeing { MERGEFILD \@ "ddMMMyy" LastPaidDate }

[quote]How do you do this Martin? I'm pulling my hair out.By dbhope[/quote] Not sure why Microsoft have made this so complicated. I think you are just not following the instructions precisely. 1) Set up an xlsx file with two headings DATE and DATETEXT Set format for DATE column to dd/mm/yyyy Set format of DATETEXT to text 2) enter the a these 2 dates in the DATE column: 01/06/2013 05/07/2014 3) enter this text in the DATETEXT column & don't let it format into a date: 1st Jun 2013 5th Jul 2014 4) Save & close file 5) Open a new word doc 6) Click mailings, Start mail merge & letters, Select Recipients & use existing list & select the list you just made & click OK 7) Click Insert merge field & click DATE & then OK 8) Press enter to move to next line 9) Click Insert merge field & click DATETEXT & then OK 10) Click Preview Results & jump through the 2 entries. The DATE field will be showing the date as mm/dd/yyyy REALLY ANNOYING 11) Click once on the DATE field (to highlight it) 12) Press SHIFT & F9 and you will see: { MERGEFIELD DATE } enter this text \@"dd MMM yyyy" so that the field becomes: {MEGEFIELD \@dd MMM yyyy" DATE} 13) VERY IMPORTANT: Note the lower case dd, UPPERCASE MMM, lower case yyyy 14) Click preview results until the data shows. Scroll through entries & I hope we are sorted.....

I can only alter the xls merge file contents when other file closed but seems to be formatted Ok with both open. Maybe the first time you need to close the xls file to get formatting to set right when setting up files. If it works go with it.

It does sound unlikely without using visual basic to detect the denomination to rejig the merge field. I think depending on the complexity of the report I would be looking to produce it direct from excel. That may be a total non-starter.

Ronel, When date is displaying right click the date. Select FONT from dialogue. Tick All Caps & then click OK. Seems to do the trick on mine

Ronel: Used to be done through the use of *Upper within field codes display. Seems to have been dropped by MS. Try this instead: When date is displaying as 2-December-2015 or whatever your format is, right click on the date & select FONT. The dialogue box has and ALL CAPS tick box to bottom right. Click it & OK dialogue. Seems to do the trick but the coding is not displayed with Alt+F9 it must be in the background somewhere. Jeez I wish they would just leave it alone!!!!!

No it doesn't. It might if you try to format it as a date but I am not sure why you would want to do that as it is not a date - well not on earth :D . As 1a is not a date if you want to display 1a just format as text as per Mr. or Mrs. or a client name.

Is there anyway to edit the merge field so that whole numbers do not display decimals .00 but will still include the decimals if there is cents in the merge data? We use merging to prepare thank you letters for donations and my boss doesn't think .00 looks appropriate, especially when the donation is large - $150,000.00 looks funny compared to just putting $150,000. Eg. Merge Data -> Merge Field $1,500.56 -> $1,500.56 $1,500.00 -> $1,500

Serena, We use { IF { MERGEFIELD Gf_Amount } = "*.00" "{ MERGEFIELD Gf_Amount \#$,# }" "{ MERGEFIELD Gf_Amount }" } where Gf_Amount is the name of the data field we're merging in.
