On the Expire History button, you can select a number of days different from 30. Or you can right-click on your PrefBar toolbar, select Customize Prefbar, select Expire History, right-click, and select Edit. Select the onClick tab of the Button window and change the 30 to some other number of days. -- David E. Ross <http://www.rossde.com/>.
