It is only the NUMERIC date format that must be the same between Legacy and 
Windows so that both treat an input of 1/6/2010 as the same date (1 Jun 2010 or 
1 Jan 2010 depending on the Numeric date format). Once a date has been entered 
and interpreted you can DISPLAY the date in any way you choose.

I was not following the thread so I do not know what the original problem was 
but displaying the month as January vice Jan should not cause any problems 
unless the person with the problem is using one of the international versions. 
I just input a problem report today where some of the international versions 
are reporting dates using valid prefixes like abt, bef, aft etc. as bad dates 
and some are not recognizing the names of the months in the non-English 
languages so they are reported as bad dates.
