Alan,

My AM-200 (Aspect 3000) shows today as being SUN 02/03/00, not THU. I don't
know how to change the day of the week, but I can live with that. What's
puzzling though is that your e-mail header shows:
---------------
| From: Alan Boyd <a.s.f.boyd@hw.ac.uk>
| Date: Fri Mar 2, 9:00am +0000
| To: "BUM List" <bruker-users-mail@bloch.cchem.berkeley.edu>
| Cc:
| Subject: Tuesday
-----------------------------------
Are you using your AC-200 to send e-mail? As I said, today it is Thursday not
Friday Mar 2.
