We yanks had best select dates using the little calendar button it provides lest we forget and type in dd/mmm/yyyy instead of mm/dd/yyyy preferred by our friends across the pond. I didn't find any way to change the input method, although the output format can be changed. Perhaps someone knows of another calulator that uses dd/mmm/yyyy &/or other input formats we can adjust according to our own norms & preferences. Otherwise, it seems to work fine.

Hi, John:

I should have mentioned the format issue, although
it doesn't bother me.

That is correct. The software I have to use to get
access to my e-mail via the Web *requires* me to
have the reply-to set. I could put anything I want
there, but tech support tells me that the design
does not permit it to be blank. Period. Grumble.

At home, I use Eudora, which is much more to my
liking, and does not have that shortcoming.
