RE: [Declude.Virus] %date%

[Markus Gufler]

american standard format is MM/DD/YYYY   european standard format is DD.MM.YYYY   For logfiles I still prefer YYYYMMDD (or with IMail MMDD) as it's more logic and straight forward then the european and american format.   In this case Bernd has asked for a variable that can be used in warning messages. If you as server admin has problems with the other date format imagine normal users maybe neihter knowing there is another date format.   Markus     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Tolmachoff (Lists) Sent: Thursday, August 12, 2004 9:44 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Declude.Virus] %date% I have to deal with this issue all the time, as I have a client with an office and 4 servers in Toronto, and they want the date set on the servers like DDMMYYYY and I have to always double check which server and logs I am working on so as to not confuse work done and reports from logs.   John Tolmachoff Engineer/Consultant/Owner eServices For You   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Goebbels, Bernd (LDS) Sent: Thursday, August 12, 2004 12:30 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Declude.Virus] %date%   hello scott,   is there a possibility that you create a secong date because we in europe don't use the date like you do, we use it like DDMMYYYY, this could cause misunderstandings with our clients. so could you create for virus and junkmail something like i.e. %dateeuro%?   bernd goebbels LDSNRW Germany
