- Microsoft Works for the Macintosh, versions 1.x and 2.0 |
SUMMARY
In a Microsoft Works version 2.00 spreadsheet, the Find command might not correctly identify the appropriate cells containing a date if the spreadsheet was converted from Works 1.00 or 1.10.
This problem occurs because dates entered in earlier versions of Works are treated as text, not numbers.
A date must be completely retyped in Works 2.00 in order to take on the desired format.
