Harry and Dolores,
It is more work up front to get set up but the freeware program I have
discussed here previously is really a better alternative. Once installed and
setup, all you do is use the old Insert+F12 hot key and you get the day, date,
time... what ever you want.
If you are interested, I probably have the detailed description and procedure
of how to set things up in my sent mail file. I could send it to you.
