Publisher 2000 Calendar

[Elaine]

Can anyone tell me how I can get a calendar to start with
Sunday? NOT Monday.

Thanks

Change your Regional Settings in the Control Panel to a sensible Metric
country like Australia and then re-boot and you will have the Calendar
working starting on a Monday. When you have finished you can change the
Regional Settings back to the backward non-metric USA.

In previous versions of Publisher up to Publisher 97 you had the choice to
choose which day you wanted to start on, but Microsoft decided for you, you
no longer needed or wanted that feature and removed it. I don't know you
think you are questioning the decisions Microsoft makes for you.

Change your Regional Settings to Australia and you will
have the Calendar working starting on a Monday.

Does anyone else see the absurdity in this?

Poor David, forgot to wear his reading spectacles...

Thanks, but unfortunately, this won't solve the problem as
I'm already in UK Regional setting but thanks for advising
re the "updated" options. Microsoft's own help stops at
advising making changes in "calendar options" which I
cannot locate.

Try changing your settings to the USA for the purposes of this.

Elaine what months and year do you want as I will e-mail you a file like you
want.

I have already existing Sun to Monday files; when I add in
pages they are configured to Monday to Sunday and any
newly generated pages/files configure to Monday to Sunday.

It may be absurd, but I still can't get Sunday to Monday
calendars - or even insert pages in calendars already
formatted thus without them being formatted to Monday to
Sunday. Any clues?

Configure your Regional and Keyboard settings to a modern go ahead
progressive Metric country like Australia, then re-boot and you will have
your calendars starting on Sunday - guaranteed. What is more, you will also
have English how it should be spelt!

But David, in the US of A, we always start our calendars on Sunday, I think you meant
Monday...

 

[°°°MS°Publisher°°°]

Do you, I thought you started on Monday.
Now all you need to do is change to Metric and you will start to become a
modern country.
