I have set up a simple mailmerge from Excel into Word. For some reason the date field is shifting e.g.

In the spreadsheet DOB 1/12/1958 - in Word 12/1/1958

I have checked the formatting and regional settings - all are correct and in English format.

I have solved the problem using the \@ facility but is anyone else experiencing problems?
