Actually, I meant to say "Date" not "Time".
Can't blame this on the europeans. "02/04/99" should work either way.
Actually, I assumed that it was operator error but the other apps work OK.
Since the other software works properly (IE: Profile III), I "think" we can
eliminate hardware problems. And... since the dummy behind the keyboard
(Me) is functioning correctly, that only leaves the software.
Another question: There are several sites on the net that have Model III
and IV software on-line. How do I get the software from a modern Pentium
(surfing machine) on to a diskette that is readable by the Model IV?
I also have a TRS-80 TL2 with 5-1/4 and 3-1/2 inch drives. Can I download
the software on to a 720K disk and then transfer it 360K using the TL2?
Thanks...

Are you sure you're entering the time in the "correct" format (i.e. not
like those silly Europeans who put the day before the month?)
