Date Codes Changing Date Code Format |

WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: The customer has old documents that contain date codes. When she changes the date format on a blank screen, all the old documents read the new date format. Solutions: This is working as designed. Basically, when the customer changed the date code format, cleared the screen and then pressed Shift-F5, C, the date would print in the changed format instead of the date code format set by using Shift-F1 in Setup. One customer was able to work around this by creating two macros, each one set the date format to a certain style. When the customer entered a document where he wanted a specific format, he simply ran the macro for that format. When he switched to another document, he ran the macro that switched the date format back to the default format. This has been entered as an enhancement that would allow users to set a date format in the Document Initial Codes. |
