scott14 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 (edited) In Microsoft Office Accounting Express 2008, the dates of everything are formatted asYY/MM/DD, like today is 08/09/11.This means 2008/Sept/11, but is too easily mistaken for Aug 9, 2011.I've searched all though the built-in Help and the online 'Help and How To' on Microsoft's web site, but don't see any explanation of HOW TO CHANGE THE DATE FORMAT.If I could even change the format to at least show 4 digits for the year I'd live with that.Does anybody know how to change the date format?Thank you.SOLVEDFor the next guy:You can't modify the date format within the MS Office application. It requires changing the date format option for the entire operating system: Control Panel / Regional & Language Options/ Regional Options / Customize button.
