Default Change the format of the "Publish Date" Quick Part

Hi all,

I have another question.
I am using the build in quick parts in Word 2007 for formatting my document.
I've inserted the "Publish Date"-part (tab "Insert" = "Text" section = "Quick Parts" = "Document Property" = "Publish Date").
When I insert a date, it will display as "d-M-yyyy" (e.g. 9-3-2010).
However, i would like to be able to format the date so it will appear like "d MMMM yyyy" (e.g. 9 March 2010), but I haven't been able to figure out how I can change the formatting of this date.

Is it possible to change this format? Can anyone help me out please?

Regards,

Bert

Default Custom header numbering

Follow the instructions at
http://www.ShaunaKelly.com/word/numb...Numbering.html, applying
the number 1 to the Heading 1, but using the Font button in the Define new
Multilevel list dialog to format the font for the number in the Heading 1 as
Hidden. and setting the starting number for Headings 2 and 3 to 0.

As long as you do not have the display of Hidden Text turned on, the number
that is assigned to the Heading 1 style will not appear when that style is
used, but it will appear as required when the Heading 2 and Heading 3 styles
are used.

Hope this helps.

Hi all,

I have a question about formatting Header numbering throughout a new
document (Word 2007).
I'm trying to do the following:

Heading 1
1.0 Heading 2
1.1 Heading 2
1.1.0 Heading 3
1.1.1 Heading 3

Heading 1
2.0 Heading 2
2.1 Heading 2
2.1.0 Heading 3
..

So it's an outline numbered / multilevel list, where Heading 1 has no
numbering, and Heading 2 restarts numbering after a Heading 1 is used.
I haven't been able to figure this one out for myselve.

Can anyone help me on this one?

Regards,

Bert

Default Custom header numbering

You'll also need to change "Follow number with" from "Tab character" to
"Nothing."
