Good Day,

My computer system date is showing up as Day/Month/Year where it should be
Month/Day/Year? Does anyoone know how to change this?

goto Control panel and change your regional settings to the US rather
than the UK

Steve,

Thank you so much,

I wonder how that would have changed to UK format?

Thanks, again

That happened to me too, the other day. It was confusing. At least one app
refused to run because it thought 17/8/05 was an illegal month. I too have
no idea what caused it.

The day/month/year format is much more logical.

Cheers,

D-m-y *is* much more logical. but I grew up on m-d-y, and I'm far too old to
change. :-( I date my checks "18 August 2005" but also "8/18/05" and never
"18/8/05". Weird.)

I am illogical.
