In the English version follow the menu's: Insert / Fields / Date Insert / Fields / Time In addition to this, you can right click either the date or time that you have created. Select Fields to open the Edit Fields dialog. At the bottom of the Format list, select Additional formats. This opens the Number Format dialog. Look through the Format list to find the timestamp format. It also has a Format code box in which you can specify the specific code you want to use. --Dan This is LO 4.0, so it may not have the elements you are talking about. I used help and repeatedly did everything it said to insert the date. The default date acceptance pattern seems to have been M/D/Y/;M/D but that didn't work, so I changed it to //, since I want the day, month, day of the week, and year to display and that doesn't work either. It comes up Date (fixed) no matter what. I only downloaded and installed writer since that is the only part of LO I will be using. Do I need to have installed one of the other sections as well? or something else? thanks in advance. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
