Francoise,

The default template for the MSG_DIGEST_FRAGMENT_DATERANGE1 looks  
like ...

.bb &FROMDATE = 0
<first ever>
.else
&DATE(&FROMDATE)
.eb
.bb &FROMDATE <> &TODATE
to &DATE(&TODATE)
.eb
.bb &TYPE = 0
(#&YYYY;-&SERIAL;)
.qu
.eb
.bb &TYPE = 1
- Special issue (#&YYYY;-&SERIAL;)
.qu
.eb
.bb &TYPE = 2
- Unfinished
.eb

So what I am still not clear on is what needs to be changed in this  
template to make the associated list's digests have a subject in the  
following format ...

Subject: Digest for mm/dd/yyyy

Thanks for explaining how the &DATE function works, but I don't see  
which place to change in the template to generate subjects in the  
format I just described.
