Can Day of the week be added to the date?

Is it possible for the date up on the top right hand have the day of the week inserted somehow in front of the Month? I don't know if it would be beneficial to everyone, but I know that sometimes I don't know what day it is, even though it says April 29, 2009, I still have to look at calendar to see if it is M, T, W, etc.. it is really important when I have to mail out a trade and don't know what day it is.. since it is better to mail out on Mondays instead of Friday's, etc..

I know I'm a little looney, but it would really help if it read, Wednesday, April 29, 2009. hopefully it doesn't sound too finicky here. Anyway, is something like this feasible?

Thank you,
Antoinette

Great idea, Antoinette!
I'm glad you thought of it. I second it!

I had been thinking about this for a very long time, only my Oldtimers would kick in and I'd forget to ask about it.

I like the idea, too!

Thank you tomatofreak! , that is the first thing I look at each morning, at the date.

I would love that. Totally non standard schedule here and I really need the reminder sometimes!! Midtimer, but still

You can set your PC up so it shows the time day, and date. But I guess one more spot doesn't hurt :)

Thanks guys.. I come here first thing in the morning and whatever date is up on top of DG, that is my date..lol, and I look at that almost every time I sign in here. It really helps me to remember the date too. I rely on this.. my pc had the time on the bottom, but I'm not sure how to put the complete date on here. I should have asked the Computer Geek that was here fixing the darn thing, only thing is I didn't think of it while he was here.

Hi Gourd,

You can find the instructions at this link for changing it so it shows in your task bar on your PC.

If it's already setup, then here is how you get it to show up:

Easily added!

sweeeet. My friends will be so impressed I finally know...

WOOHOO!! Thanks!

oooh, thank you so much Dave.. I love it!

I promise, I use it every time I come here.

THANKs everyone, you all have a great day!

Alan, I'll fiddle with my puter tonight, it will give me more time. Thanks for the instructions.

Gah!! I looked up and saw it just now and thought "I already knew that!" Very pleased with myself I was too. Still --If I didn't have to go to the DMV I wouldn't have....lolol.

Thanks again!

Glad that you asked for this Gourd, and a big thanks, Dave for adding it!

Also, if you use Windows, just put your cursor over the time stamp on the bottom of the screen and the day/date will pop up.

Yea!! COOL!!!!

Thanks, great idea and a quick fix. I would love a calendar too on DG. Patti

Dave, I didn't even know I wanted that, but I like it.

You are the man!! Thanks

I am really liking it too.. thank you again for making the addition for us.
