For same charity I have started to mailmerge excel spreadsheets into word documents to generate invoices.

Now...

The date fields in the spreadsheet are UK format
The international settings in control panel are for UK

But, when I run the merge, WORD kindly decides that I should have the dates in US format.

Please can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong and how I can get round it. This time I am working in Word 2007. Te help is not very helpful,
