Hi. I have a data source that cannot be adjusted. A field that is supposed to be a date field is actually pushed into word a string. So my mail merge doesn't see it a date source and thus doesn't format it using the \@ switch.

For example, I have "2/1/2025" coming into Word through a a MailMerge field. But it's actually a string piece of data, not a date.



How do I convert it into a Word date data field?

Thank you.
