Subject: Re: PFCSIG Changing the computer date format with PB
The way to change a computer's regional date settings (win95/98/NT?)
is
through the control panel/regional settings/date/shortdate format.
I
usually set it to M/D/YYYY. I'm not sure if you can do it through
the
registry (you must be able to do this), but if you correct it, why
would you want to change t back? Anyway, maybe someone else knows
the
spot in the registry where this is set, but I recommend changing it
to
what you want and LEAVING it!
My $.02,
Kevin Ridley
