Please tell me in E-Z words how to set the clock and calendar on the Canon MP11DX calculator? Manual instructions, which I cannot locate anyway, are absolutely unclear. Please HELP!

To set the calender: Press the Calender/Time button. Press and hold the Time Set button for 3 seconds; the first digit of the date will start blinking. Then type in the date as two digit number for the month and date and a 4 digit number for the year. Add a zero in front of the month or day if under 10. Then press Time Set again. Press the CE/C button to return to the Calculation mode
(hold for 3 seconds)
Thus for today [Cal/Time] [Time Set] 0 9 1 5 2 0 1 0 [Time Set] [CE/C]

(hold for 3 seconds)
For December 1, 2010 [Cal/Time] [Time Set] 1 2 0 1 2 0 1 0 [Time Set] [CE/C]

To set the Time from the Calculator mode, you press the Calender/Time button twice before pressing and holding the Time Set button for 3 seconds; again the first digit of the current time will blink. Then type in the time as a 4 digit number followed by the AM/PM button to switch from AM to PM or PM to AM. Then press the Time Set button again and then the CE/C button to return to the calculator mode. You will see an A (AM) or P (PM) to the right of the time as you set it.

So for 5:06 PM you type
(hold for 3 seconds)
[Cal/Time] [Cal/Time] [Time Set] 0 5 0 6 [AM/PM] [Time Set] [CE/C]

I hope this helps. You can find the manual here: http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/calculators/printing_calculators/mp11dx#BrochuresAndManuals as a pdf.

(I'm using Cal/Time for the button that has an icon that looks like a 1 month calender on the left and a clock on the left.)
