Hi 

I've been reading with interest the thread on the speaking of days in Outlook 
calendar.  This is something I've wondered myself, and after Steve's post about 
amending the regional settings, I'm glad to say it has worked a treat for me.  

The only thing that springs to mind, Tink, is to check that you copied the 
letters exactly as Steve put them in his post.  They were a very odd 
combination of d's m's and yes with upper and lower case instances, but I'm 
sure you probably got it right.

Flushed with success, I decided to delve into the Outlook help system to see if 
there were any navigational keystrokes for moving around in the calendar as is 
the case with the Pacmate pocket Outlook calendar.  to my delight, I discovered 
the date navigator keystrokes which move you back and forth through weeks and 
months.  

These are a combination of alt with home/end, up/down arrow and page up and 
down.  they move you to the beginning/end of the week, previous and next 
occurrence of the day you are focused on and beginning and end of the month.  

Unfortunately, the alt with up and down arrow don't appear to work for me.  
I've tried it in all views, but to no avail.  Anyone got any ideas?

XP home with J7.0.

regards ... Scott
