hi, !

AFAIK the shortcut is the same: <ctrl> + ;
maybe it depends on his/her kbd-layout
in spaish keyboards, semicolon is [usually] above comma

try w/ <ctrl> <shift> , [comma] abbreviated it will be <ctrl> + ;

hth,
hector.

Thanks Hector,

She is using an english keyboard, running a spanish version of excel 2007,
so I guess that there might be a problem with the keyboard. I will try a
different keyboard with her pc to see if this corrects the reason that <ctrl>
+ ; does not work.

*New Update*
From trial and error, and reading into what Hector wrote, I tried <Ctrl> + ,
(comma) and found this to work on her pc. This allowed us to input the
current date.
