Does anyone know of a way to create glossary entries in Word that make use of the current date. The long-format, standard date entries use the form, month date, year. I would rather use the date month year format. Any ideas? dp

I used ResEdit to modify the itl0 and itl1 resources in my System, to change the dates to the format that I prefer (yyyy-mm-dd). Most of my applications then use my preferred format. This includes the Word Glossary entries. -Goz (goz@vm.ucsf.edu)

(Tried to reply via E-mail, but it bounced... sorry.) I've had the same problem... so I created an 'itl0' resource in ResEdit with the preferred format and pasted it into MS Word. Works like a charm, but it's an all-or-nothing proposition. Can't pick and choose formats on a per document basis, like you could in a real word processor... +--------------------------+-------------------------------------------+ | Stephen Fleming | My employer doesn't pay for this account. | | fleming@cup.portal.com | In fact, my employer doesn't even know | | CI$: 76354,3176 | I'm here!
