I don't know if these will do what you want - but should help
If your converting a lot of Dates in one go - it may be worth while temporarily
changing the ShortDateFormat and using the standard DateToStr stuff.
If it is an occasional requirement - what about using EncodeDate and DecodeDate.

[DUG]: changing a string containing a USA date to an Aussie date
---------------------------------
I have a slightly large problem of changing a Date in a string from being
mm/dd/yy to dd/mm/yy because of the regional settings on the computers here
use aussie english and not american. The Function StrToDateTime uses the
american date format mm/dd/yy and so when i use that function it raises an
exception because the settings on the computer use dd/mm/yy. If you
understand my problem, I would love some assistence.
Thanks in advance
Damien Long
