Any suggestions as how to get this query to work properly with the correct format. See "Formatting Word fields with switches" on fellow MVP Graham Mayor's website at http://www.gmayor.com/formatting_word_fields.htm  SignaturePlease post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the benefit of others who may be interested. Unsolicited questions forwarded directly to me will only be answered on a paid consulting basis. Hope this helps Doug Robbins - Word MVP > I am using a word merg document with a query from excel. a column of 6 digits , current format, *603475* comes through as *603475.0* and the column with a date format comes through with the date and time. > Any suggestions as how to get this query to work properly with the correct format.
