showing dates, e.g. 1st, 2nd, 3rd with st, nd, rd in superscript
I've recently started using Word 2007. I prefer to write dates in the form
1st January, rather than January 1. My previous edition of word always automatically gave st, nd and rd as smaller font superscripts or suffixes. I can't find a way of getting Word 7 to do that as a default. |

Hi Ken,
If the numbers are being typed from the keyboard with the ordinals immediately following, then Word's auto formatting ought to superscript the ordinals. If it's not working, check your settings. -- Cheers macropod [Microsoft MVP - Word] "Ken" wrote in message ... I've recently started using Word 2007.
