Hmmm. Thx Richard. Just to check - I have changed the date format to the same as you and the date displays correctly under "Due date" in the main Tasks tree view (left hand side pane) but it makes no difference to the way that dates are shown under "Timing and Reminder" in the "Properties" tab of the right hand pane. I still get m/d/yyyy there.
