Specifies a list of HTML timesheets that can be populated from the Diary screen.

Timesheets require some basic knowledge of HTML syntax, and you will need an HTML editor to design and edit your timesheets.

Use HTML comment tags in your timesheet to indicate where you want hours to be printed. A list of pre-defined tags can be seen in the list.

An example of an HTML timesheet

Timesheet for Jennifer Cox Week ending Saturday 12 Jan
Monday 7 Jan	8:00.00
Tuesday 8 Jan	6:30.00
Wednesday 9 Jan	8:00.00
Thursday 10 Jan	2:00.00
Friday 11 Jan	10:15:00

Total	34:45.00

The HTML code for this table might look like this:

<TABLE>
<TR>
<TD COLSPAN=2>
Timesheet for <B></B>
<BR>
Week ending <B></B>
</TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD>

</TD>
<TD>
<B></B>
</TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD>

</TD>
<TD>
<B></B>
</TD>
</TR>
...
...
</TABLE>

Note In this example we are using tags for DAY2 through DAY6 because the default working week starts on a Sunday, and so DAY1 is Sunday. If your working week started on a Thursday for some bizarre reason then DAY1 would be Thursday.

Date format

The date format is used to display dates on the timesheet.

The same format is used for the WEEKENDING tag as the DAYx_DATE tags.

If you want to display the day in one cell and the date in another, then assuming that your working week always starts on the same day you don't really need to include the day name (Monday, Tuesday etc) in the Date format setting. So, set a date format such as 7 Jan and actually type the day name into one cell and have the DAYx_DATE tag in the other.
