Good morning Maurice,

No it doesn't ;o(

Well it doesn't help my efforts, since I don't have the source code.

 HG> To my knowledge only Sweden and Denmark use yyyy-mm-dd.

MK> Nope.  It is a universally acceptable format especially when %T and
MK> %z are tacked onto it.

Yes I know it's an internationally acceptable format, but still most
countries I know use the "old" format of dd/mm/yyyy with various chrs
between the numbers. Even Australia seems to stay with the old format.


Have a nice day,

Holger
