Outlook received "Today, Yesterday, Sunday..."

Anybody customized MS Outlook lately?

I've been using my current config for years without 
change. Outlook is what is mandated by the employer.
A new kid at our office wants to install 
Outlook Express because he doesn't like the way 
full Outlook is showing his message-received dates.

He prefers Today, Yesterday, Sunday, Saturday... Last 
Week, Last Month... Previous Millenium...

I remember switching that OFF in KMail and possibly 
in Pegasus, because I really dislike that style. I 
don't remember if that was ever an option in Outlook. 
Can't seem to find it in the menus, and the Help is, 
as usual, unhelpful.

What I did find was about a dozen different ways 
to display date-and-time, but none with that Today, 
Yesterday... etc.  

A cube neighbor was trying to tell the new kid 
that he needed to set up reports and other db-ish stuff, 
but that sounds a little excessive.

Anybody know what I'm talking about and where it 
is set?  Outlook 2003.

Kevin (who doesn't expect to hear from Americans today - happy fourth!)
