Multiple replies & error message I received here
"Tom B" wrote in message
... I regret the multiple copies of my reply here. Each time I tried to post a reply, I received an automated error message that the posting failed. The error message told me to try again later. Later I found they had been posted anyway, so there are multiple entries of the same content. I regret that, but was following the instructions sent to me by the system. Do yourself a BIG favour and ditch the horrible web interface. Use a news reader instead.

Insert Date does not have the usual date format
Apparently there is a fault on at least one of the web portals which
reproduce these messages that I was not aware of, as I never use the web portals. You may find it simpler to do as I and a majority of the regular contributors do and access the NNTP server directly - see http://www.gmayor.com/MSNews.htm Tom B wrote: I regret the multiple copies of my reply here.

Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA http://word.mvps.org "Tom B" wrote in message ... I use the date format "February 2, 2009" with all my other word processors. With MS Word I tried using Insert, Date and time, and find a number of date formats listed, but this one is not there. I would also like to create an icon in one of the toolbars at the top of the screen to automatically enter the date in this format (I have other word processors that do this easily - even old word processors). Version: MS Word 2002 running with Windows XP Pro. Thanks |
