When I type a date in a Word document such as a letter,
up comes uuninvited a little window which automatically
inserts the date for me. What's more, it does it even
though I have just typed the date in myself and types it
in American style ie. month followed by day followed by
year. So if I type in 18 May, 2004, I will end up with 18
May,2004-05-18.
Leaving aside of how anyone designing such a ludicrous
system can end up as the richest man in the world, can
anyone tell me:
(a) how to switch this date system off, and
(b) make sure that any date system that is on Word
conforms to the British day/month style rather than the
American style.
Many thanks
