How to change language settings so that Mail Merge uses French mon

[Guest]

Hi Everyone,

I'm wondering if there is a way to change Word 2000's settings so that our
current mail merge fields for dates will be printed in french.

I've been able to get the date field to use French language as a default,
but this hasn't propagated to our calculated date field. This field still
uses the DATE element.

Thanx in Advance
Filex

Which technique did you use to get the date field to display in French? What
date format do you want (show us an example, please)? What's your data
source file type?
