Hi,
I have searched the whole forum and internet for hlp but to no avail so I'm posting it here ....
I'm currently working in Indonesia so all dates have to be in the Indonesian.
I have managed to mail merge dates stored as DD/MM/YY in my Access database and output them as 31 December 2005 for example.
I used this switch code to achieve this
MERGEFIELD StartDate \@ "dd MMMM yy" \* MERGEFORMAT
I have also gone to Windows Regional Settings to set all language settings to Indonesian. It works fine in Access.
But when I do a Mail merge with Word, the month is still reflected in English and not Indonsian language. e.g. June should be Juni instead. Even the task bar changes from Indonesia to English.
I'm using Access and Word 2002 btw.
What should I do? totally at a loss.
Will appreciate any kind souls who can help.
