Insert Date does not have the usual date format
I was able to create the macro. I was also able to put the macro in the Formatting bar at the top of the screen. (1) However instead of a symbol or name it is spelled out "Normal.NewMacros.InsertUSFormatDate" I need a symbol or maybe the word "Date" (2) I was also unable to list the date format (Month Day, Year) in the list of other date formats listed at Insert-Date and Time Thanks.

With MS Word I tried using Insert, Date and time, and find a number of date formats listed, but this one is not there. I would also like to create an icon in one of the toolbars at the top of the screen to automatically enter the date in this format (I have other word processors that do this easily - even old word processors). Version: MS Word 2002 running with Windows XP Pro. Thanks |
