Everytime she views one of the memo's or letters she has saved in word, the date changes to whatever date it is. For instance if she wrote the letter/memo in May 2002, if she views it today it will change the date to Septemeber 18th, 2002. We've looked everywhere for an answer and so far no one has been able to help us. thank you so much in advance Tati ************************************************************* You are receiving this mail because you subscribed to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or MicrosoftOffice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To send mail to the group, simply address it to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To Unsubscribe from this group, send an email to mso-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?Subject=unsubscribe Or, visit the group's homepage and use the dropdown menu.
