Date format in field code

External Since: Jul 25, 2005 Posts: 1

I am working with a Word document and need help formatting from
03/11/1972 to March 11, 1972.

The code I am currently using is { DOCPROPERTY "Dictation Date
MM/dd/yyyy" \* MERGEFIELD }

Please let me know how to change this to get the date spelled out.

Thanks for any help!
