When I go to Help: About it says  2.0.3.

I got some messages to scroll when I hit Cntl (one of the letters I was asked to hit), but it was way too fast. So I went back and went to Help: About and hit the Cntl D and then nothing, then the other letters and it won't do anything.

I tried to hit the keys at the exact same time and then I also tried to hit Cntl and then the letter, still nothing.

When I put a date on a document, I go to Insert, Fields, Other, then I
chose DATE and then DATE (not date fixed) and then the format I want the
date to be and then Insert and close.

My problem is that every time that document is opened, it adds an extra
comma between the day of the week and the month, for example:  Friday,
October 13, 2006 will show up as Friday,,,October 13,2 006 if the
document has been opened three times since its original making.
How can I keep that from happening each time it opens. I only want it to
keep up with the current date...

I tried this question in the forum, but have received no response.

Hi Brenda,

What version and operating system are you on? I use Windows XP, with OOo
2.0.4. I tried what you said, inserting the field formatted like you had
it, and I saved the document, closed it and reopened it several times, and
no extra commas were inserted. I did this all in the span of around 5
minutes though, so if there is a time factor (like it only happens when
the document is opened on the next day), I would have missed it.

I have OpenOffice 2.0  No other numbers are with it.  This is an office
setting, so I can't upgrade.

Ms. Brown:

Can you go to the Help -> About and let me know what the results are. If you could also press the Cntrl+S, Cntrl+D and then Cntrl+T keys and advise of the build number, I would appreciate this.

James McKenzie
