Most apps that use the date or time use both because 21:03 is not as specific as 21:03 05/12/06 The former is the exact minute of the day of any day, any month, any year, but the later is the exact minute of the day on a specific day, month and year. There is a more technically correct way to say this. I will leave that to someone else. -- http://24.197.142.167/~jack/openofficefaq.php Read the OpenOffice.org FAQ Microsoft users go to http://www.pclinuxos.com for a great user friendly Linux experience! --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
