Why the "day" is not inserted as we read values from Excel to Word?

Hi Jumal,

Try this link, and look at the example by clicking on the '+'.

You need to edit the field code to show the date in the format you require.

Hope this helps.

thank you for the answer nutrastat.

i tried your hint but unfortunately it didn't work!

- the date is read from an excel file but not directly from Word
- the format is applicable for the current date but not for the dates listed in the excel file!

please, see the attached the images that shows my problem.

what i need is to have the dates listed in excel to be written in Word exactly as they are.

how can i do that? could you please elaborate more?

regards

Jamal
