PER CURIAM:

     Donna Marie Hamilton appeals the district court’s order de-

nying relief in her employment discrimination action.      We have

reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find no

reversible error.   Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the

district court. See Hamilton v. Tenent, No. CA-98-1195-A (E.D. Va.

Feb. 8, 1999).*   We dispense with oral argument because the facts

and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials

before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.




                                                          AFFIRMED




     *
       Although the district court’s order is marked as “filed” on
February 5, 1999, the district court’s records show that it was
entered on the docket sheet on February 8, 1999. Pursuant to Rules
58 and 79(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, it is the
date that the order was entered on the docket sheet that we take as
the effective date of the district court’s decision. See Wilson v.
Murray, 806 F.2d 1232, 1234-45 (4th Cir. 1986) (1994).
