Using Windows XP-Media Edition and Office 2003.

Every time I get a Windows update or an Office update, I keep expecting the
auto date feature to get fixed. So far I've been disappointed every time.
Does anyone know if they plan to reinstate the auto date feature so that
when I type the first four letters of the month name I will get the option
of filling in the current date?????

Sorry, I meant Check Mark (not check box) in the box next to "Show

Unfortunately, the way AutoComplete works for dates is unsatisfactory to
many users.
