Dates against Word traced changes

[Guest]

When a document contains tracked changes, the dates identified in the tooltip
associated with a tracked change are in American format (mm/dd/yy).
My PC is generically configured to present dates in UK format.
How can I get the date presentation in such tooltips also to be in UK format
(dd/mm/yy)?

Hi Rowland

You have to get the Windows Regional settings (including the Keyboard),
Office and Word all lined up to use the same language. For what it's worth,
mine show in d/mm/yyyy format.

See http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister/LangFmt.htm for details.

Hope this helps.
