Hi Sa,
Not through the standard menu, but a very small macro could
do it, and you could then assign the macro to a keyboard
shortut or menu item. For example, here's a macro that'll
type the date 14 days from now, in U.S. format:
Selection.TypeText Format(Now + 14, "MMMM d, yyyy")
Or here's one that'll *ask* you how many days in advance you
want the date, the type it in short format (e.g., 9/9/03):
Dim NumDays As Long
Asker:
On Error GoTo oops
NumDays = InputBox("How many days in advance?")
Selection.TypeText Format(Now + NumDays, "M/d/yy")
Exit Sub
oops:
Err.Clear
MsgBox "Must enter a number.": GoTo Asker
If you've never used macros, don't be scared of them. They
can save you tons of time for almost anything you do often.
