Bob: that works, but some people have trouble with it. They click on
the cell and the date appears, true, but then if they hit return or
enter or the down or up arrow, it puts the date in THAT cell, too. If a
date was previously entered in that cell, it replaces it with the
current one.

I dunno, I think we'll just have to go with control-; .

Thanks,
