Dot as time separator
 

How can i change the default setting for the time format from ":" to "."
for inserting time on num pad?

You can set it up to work *temporarily* that way using "AutoCorrect".

Works well if you're entering timecards on a Monday morning, and you
wouldn't need it again till next week.

Just go to:
<Tools <AutoCorrect
And set it up to replace the period (decimal) with a colon.

When you're done, just change it back.

Thanks. It works :) And wen i change ":"with ".." in autocorrect, it
allows to use as not temporarily.
