Drop down Date Format in Word 2007 Template

[Nova Scotia Tony]

How can I change a year in the Drop down calendar in a Word 2007 template. I
know I can use left and right arrows but to get back to ..... say 1946 .....
would take me over 700 "clicks", ie, one for each month. Is there anyway to
get back to a particular year, very quickly. It's great for maybe a year or
two either way but any more is just too many "clicks"

Thanks and regards
Tony

Have you tried "New, Calendars, Other Calendars? There is a Calendar wizard you
can input any year.

I'm not sure what you mean ... not very clerver at this sort of thing
can I use a different calendar in a Form Template I am trying to create. I
need a form where someone can enter a date of birth (for example) so I need a
drop down calendar to put on the form.

Thanks for all your help guys. Just recently the Microsoft Office "Bible"
and it can't be done. The only way to move from year to year is to click
through each month ..... that's a lot of clicks to move back 20 years

Thanks and regards

Oh, yuck, sure is. I'm glad you know for sure now, though.
