autotext appearance
In a Word 03 doc, automatically updated text (such as a date) or a hyperlink
to an Internet or network address have had a normal appearance, but with a gray box (text) or blue underline (hyperlink). A few days ago, the appearance changed to the formatting rules. An example: old way: February 21, 2008 now: { DATE\@ "MMMM d, yyyy" } When I print to paper or .pdf, the date prints appropriately, but I would like to have it appear that way on my monitor. Thanks in advance for any help! |
