I have some form letters in Microsoft Word that need a date in
the format "month day, 1988".  I used the glossary to set up
a dynamic date in MS Word, but it comes out as 11/15/88.  I
understand that this format has to do with the way the Mac's
System is setup.  I poked around with Resedit and found the
itl1 resource.  Is this the one I have to change?  Does anyone
know how I would change it--which field, what value do I type
in?
	
I appreciate all the help I have been getting from USENET.
