Specifying a date

You can enter (or modify) a date (and time) in the At time box for a Date, for instance, when specifying the simulation start and stop time for a simulation project and for process worksteps.
To specify the date and time:
1. Select the At time option (if you are specifying a date for the first time) to display the current system date and time in the adjoining text box.
2. To specify another date (or time), click the ellipsis button beside the At time option to open the Calendar dialog box, which display the current month’s calendar. By default, the calendar highlights today’s date and current time.
3. To select a date from the displayed month, click the desired date.
4. To display the calendar for another month, use the arrows provided beside the month. Click the arrow pointing right for the next month, or the arrow pointing left for the previous month. Alternatively, to select any other month, you can click on the current month and then select the desired month from the list.
5. Similarly, to display the calendar for another year, click the current year and then type the desired year. Alternatively, you can use the adjoining controls to increment (or decrement) the year by one. Click outside the year control to accept the changed year.
6. To change the default time from the Time box, click the hour, minute, and second boxes and type the respective values. Alternatively, you can use the adjoining controls to increment (or decrement) the respective value. You can also use these controls to switch between AM and PM.
7. Click OK to display the selected date and time in the text box beside the At time option.
