Date format in merged field
I am using Publisher 2000 (from Office 2000 Pro), under W2K.
I am printing membership cards, merging data from an Excel spreadsheet. One of the merged text fields on the membership card is a date. How do I control the date format on the printed cards? When the spreadsheet had a date format of "8/4", the card printed as "August 8, 2004". I changed the spreadsheet date format to "August 4, 2004". Now the card prints "8/4/2004". I suspect, however, that it was something else that I did within Publisher that caused the date format results. - David D. |

Date format in merged field
You will need to export/SAVE AS in CSV (Comma Separated Values) from Excel
and use that file as your merge file. -- "If you don't know where you are going, any road will take you there!" |
