Read regional settings with access-vb

[George X]

Hi everybody
I wish to read the regional settings with a access-visual basic program, to
read for example, the current language or the current date format of the pc
used. Can this be done with access-vb?

Thanks

The VB code is here:
http://vbnet.mvps.org/
Use "Search VBnet" to search for "Regional".

Haven't tested, but it should work in VBA as well.

I found this code:
GetLocaleInfo: Regional Locale Date Settings

Thank you very much

I tried all of that - to the letter and got a run time error '2185' you can't
reference a property or method for a control unless the control has the
focus. What am I doing wrong please?
