Default drop down menu quit working in Offic2003 when add time/date to mee

Out of the blue when I add a meeting to my calendar and try to set the date
and time by using the drop down minues it doesn't work. I can open the drop
down minues but the minute I try to move my mouse to set the date or time the
minue closes. All I have left is to use my arrow keys when the menu is open
to set the date or time. Sounds like another update by microsoft has caused
something to go bad that has always worked. Does anyone else have this
problem or have heard of it? Russ

what is the current version # (see help about - we need the 11.xxxx.xxxx
number) and have you tried detect and repair yet?

you can type the time and date in - for dates, you can use 3w for 3 weeks
ahead and for times, shortcuts work, like 2.35 for 2:35 PM.

see the following for some of the shortcuts that work:
