- Paul, I don't use ProText, so this is completely off the wall. But, does
- ProText read the system clock/calendar to get its date/time info? If so,
- then the problem would appear to be solvable by resetting the date and time
- to be correct.
-
- Alternatively, does ProText have a preferences screen for setting the date?
-
- (Hmmm, running out of ideas here %).
