Sorry, I had sudden family business to take care of after that last 
post. I just downloaded the software yesterday, so I thought that those 
who had it longer had probably figured it out. 

To display the image dates, go to the "Layers" pane and scroll down to 
the "DG" checkboxes. Turn them on, and the image grid with the date in 
bold red font will appear overlaying the image. You may have to zoom out 
to see it. 

Appearing to the left of each red date is a large, lowercase "i". Click 
on that and a box appears on the image containing the date the image was 
taken, the cloud cover at the time, the resolution of that particular 
image and a link to the image online. Very nice feature. 

As it happens, the image I noted above was taken in July 2003, a couple 
of months before breaking ground on the school field paving.
