Can't format numbers for France in Excel 2003
I'm using the US version of Excel 2003, but need to format costs, etc., for a project in the French euro format (e.g., I need 2050.45 euros to display as 2 050,45). That currency format isn't offered in my dialog box, and if I make a custom number format that will display correctly, it doesn't operate as a number. Any suggestions?

Inserting a text Watermark automatically moves all text down one l
In Word 2003, when I try and insert a text watermark from the Format/Background menu, on pages with .3 or less margins, there is a flicker and all the text automatically moves down one line. Clicking Undo (or the blue back arrow) removes the watermark, but DOES NOT move the text back up. I need the .3 margins and a ‘CONFIDENTIAL’ text watermark for this particular document. I tried changing the ‘Auto’ size option, with no difference. Is this an unnoticed and unfixable glitch in Word 2003? How can I insert the watermark without the text being moved down? Also, what size text...

Formatting worksheet
I have a workbook with three worksheets and one chartsheet in it. I have notes documenting various aspects of the four sheets. Some of those notes are on electronic post-it notes and others on scraps of paper. It seems to me that a convenient way to consolidate all of my documentation for the workbook would be to add another worksheet to it and put the information in it. What would be the best way to format the worksheet so that I could type information into it as if I were using a text editor? Leslie, Excel isn't really all that set up for text.

How to return a 12 hour time format without the AM in an Access query
The format function acts differently in a query and after hours of testing, messing, and cursing, I give up. How do you return 12 hour format without the AM or PM from an Access query. In my table, I've defined the Start Time and End Time to use "Medium Time" format and it works if and ONLY if you simple include the field in the query. However, if you use the field in a more complex statement, it returns leading zeros and trailing seconds. Here's what I've tried.... 'This didn't work because it returns trailing seconds and AM/PM.
