Now the United State table is different is not the year 2010 month June the day 30, then Wednesday.
It is the of June on the day 30, in the year of 2010. Now why the United States does this is beyond me. It is confusing to most who use the ISO International Standard. I more then likely am wrong but isn't open office a U.S. Company owned. There is the reason for the stand that Open Office uses. It is a U.S. A. Standard. So Open Office why not have both standards let those use the one they want to use themselves. Have some one write up the little file to let us users make the choice they want. I would like to have the International Standard ISO 8601 which most countries use including Canada.
