outlook doesn't show the day number but one of the alternate calendars
reportedly does (none I tried will - one does moon phases though). tools,
options, calendar options, show alternate calendar.

Wow, I have my reasons. I only want the day number of the year. I will
look at creating a macro. But thanks for the history lesson.

Out of curiosity; how is this useful to you?
To put it a bit crude; a Julian Date is nothing more than a "big"
mathematical number counting the days passed since January 1, 4713 BC
(Greenwich noon) with a decimal which is a reference to a specific time
of the day. Other than for specific researches I cannot really come up
with a reason to have it. And I cannot really think of one to have it in
a generic calendar application as a standard option.

Anyway, since you can calculate it by a static formula, you can add such
information by creating a macro which looks at which date/time you have
selected in your calendar and then does the calculation for you.

The same is true if you actually meant that you want to see the day
number of this year.

Is there a way to show Julian dates in addition to the standard calendar
format? I looked in Vistas Regional Languages and there is nothing
there to select for this option.
