Opsss...

I have done a test to verify the problem, and exactly, do not receive 
the mail.

Today I will try to solve the problem, or I will send you a temporary 
password (the passwords are coded inside the database, and I do not know 
them) that you can change in your Profile of the web.

Thank you for your patience.

 Nice effort. I will try updating it with news when I've got any
 (but so far I'm waiting for the password mail).

 The Japanese though being supremely logical, use 2006/02/01 for Feb
 first, I believe.  Great for programmers!

 Hmm, what else should it be used for if not Feb.1st?

  Yes.
 

 Is this true even though the altered program is merely used privately?


Yes (unless of course, the licence allows it). If you make any change to the
program you're normally breaking the licence.

Generally speaking, there are no private use provisions in any law I know
of, contrary to what happens in some countries with copies of audio visual
works.
There is in the UK for solo songs.  One is allowed to make one extra
copy, to allow use of an accompanist.

Even simply reverse engineering (i.e. just de-compiling) may be against the
law...

The system of shipment by mail already works. It needed something of 
configuration. ;)

 .. and the USA date format is totally confusing.

 01/02/2006 is January 2nd whereas most of the world treat it as 
 February
 1st.

 It's pretty logcial though,they just write it as they speak it:

 January second two thousand six
 as unfortunaltely, they are burdened (ha!) with then english 
 language which
 puts the month first, then the day, then the year.

Nothing divides us as much as a common language eh?

According to Oscar Wilde the British have everything in common with the 
Americans except the language. A typical Wilde exaggeration, of course, but 
perhpas he has a point..

Hi Dilwyn,

 I suspect (unless this doesn't work on Ralf's system) that he may have 
 seen the 'First day of week (0=sunday, 6=saturday)' prompt and not 
 realised he could enter any number in that range - 1 for monday, 2 for 
 tuesday and so on. Option 3 does not allow you to specify start day at 
 all, since it's a one line per day format always starting on first of 
 the month whatever day that is.

Grmpff, haven't tried that, sorry.

Cheers...Ralf R.
