If you’ve ever scrambled at your computer desk to find a wall calendar or
desk calendar to look up a date, then I think you will appreciate the
speed and convenience of this tip.
To find a date any time in the future or the past (or at least between
1980 and 2099) try this:
- Double-click on your system clock at the end of your task bar
(usually located in the lower right of your screen) - Click on the drop down box to pick your month
- Click on the up/down buttons to get to your desired year
- IMPORTANT: Make sure you click on Cancel when finished so that
your current date remains accurate.
This tip works with any version of Windows from 95 right on through the
new XP.
Give it a try and I think you will be surprised how often you end up
using this little jewel.v
