Symptom
Calendar Assistant in ClarisWorks 3.0 or 4.0 does not allow for the starting date of a calendar to be later than December 1999.
Solution
With the Calendar Assistant feature of ClarisWorks, you can create calendar documents, which are essentially Spreadsheet documents, formatted to look like each month of the year that you specify. Creating a 12-month calendar using the Assistant creates 12 Spreadsheet documents.
The Calendar Assistant included with ClarisWorks 3.0 and 4.0 do not allow the starting date for calendars to be later than December 1999. However, there are a few workarounds.
1. Create calendar documents from scratch.
2. Use the Calendar Assistant to make a calendar for 1999, then set the beginning month to December. Unfortunately, the Assistant will not allow you to use a value greater than 12 months, so you will be unable to generate a calendar for December 2000 using this method.
3. Use the Calendar Assistant to make a calendar from another year which has the came calendar form (you can use a universal calendar to determine this). Some examples of years with the same calendar form are:
January through December 2000 - use 1972
January through December 2001 - use 1979
January through December 2002 - use 1991
Note: Apple has provided templates for the years 2000-2005. These templates can be downloaded from the following Web site:

These are standalone documents, simply double-click the document to open the calendar.
