umm... I don't understand how you're *not* able to do this. I use OneNote
'07, maybe that's the difference?
I insert date and time on new pages, too. On my setup this is required,
since the default d&t are those for when the template were created. I want
the current d&t, so I switch to the lasso tool, select the date and time
block, and once selected...
SOLUTION 1:
....click on the small calendar that appears on the top right. From the menu
that appears, select "Today"; then, click the small clock on bottom right and
click 'OK' to set page time to current. Bad There's no way to reformat
text size, font face style or color using this method that I can find.
Otherwise, I can...
SOLUTION 2:
....click the 'X' button or otherwise delete this d&t block. Then I click on
a desired clear area on the page, with either the text or lasso tools and
click the "Insert date and time" button or menu item. This places the
current date and time in a fully formatible text field. Unfortunately, the
d&t are in 'mm/dd/yyyy, h:mm AM/PM' format and this format seems to be
unalterable from within OneNote. But, at least this method allows the user
to format size, color, etc. of the d&t for the note to somethig that can be
read/printed visibly.
Perhaps someone else could chip in with a way to format Solution 2 back to
'Mmm, dd, yyyy <br> time' ?
