Calendars

[OldBill]

Hi, have come across this problem with calendars - in Oz our week starts on
Sunday and all calendars are this way - but Publisher seems to only do
Monday to Sunday weeks.

Regional settings are set correctly.

Can you guys help?

TIA

Bill

I have the exact opposite problem, our week starts on a Monday but my
version of Publisher only starts on a Sunday !

I have tried all the settings but cannot change it, I am using Publisher
2002 (XP) and I would also love to know how to change this.

Same here Keith. I too have my dates starting Sunday when I need Monday. Am
using XP Publisher 2003. Have found the article in the MS help regarding
regional settings. Have endured that all are correct, was one of the first
things I checked after taking delivery. Dates round the wrong way is slightly
annoying!

Will check Technet when I get to work but think the answer lies in an
unofficial chat room somewhere.

Is there anyone that can put us out of our misery?

Taken from another thread...
It appears that loading SP1 may help although did nothing for me.

Here are some templates for Calendars designed for Monday through Sunday as
opposed to the U.S. Sunday through Saturday standard:

This KB article might help you:

I've had to go to Control Panel>Regional and Language Options and change to
English US (rather than Australian) and then customise to do dates the way
we do here. Seems to work for Publisher.

Not sure yet whether will upset other programs.

Seems to have upset the spell check here (but not in Word) - wants to
customize (not customise).

Perhaps you have yours set as English US and need to change to English UK?

Any further ideas welcome.

I should point out I'm using Office 2000 with Win XP Home.
