Greetings all!
I make the time sheets at work for employees to sign their daily hours
worked. The office computer (98se) has Lotus word pro (part of Lotus smart suite
96) which I use for this.
The time sheets have 6 columns (Name, Date, In, Out, Hours, Signature) and
5 groups of 7 rows. Under the "Date" column, the 7 rows of each group are
dates for each weekday.
Previously, when updating to the next weeks dates, I would click and drag
from top left corner to bottom right corner of one group of cells containing
dates, copy, left-click top left corner of next group, right-click, and paste
which would place all seven dates into the cells of the next group. Now when
I use the exact same process, only the first cells' date is pasted which
forces me to either manually change each date or copy/paste each one.
I can't speak for other employees, but I haven't changed any settings and
can't figure out what has happened.
A possible clue, I noticed what appeared to be the top edge of another date
at the bottom of a cell. When I highlight (select) the contents of that
cell, and "cut", a different date appears which makes me think all this time I
have just been adding dates instead of replacing them even though they dont
appear on screen or printed.
I realise this is a "dinosaur" program but hope that someone may still be
able to advise me.
Many thanks,
Phillip Williams
