Tonight my TClockEx is showing the date as 02/32, but it's set for
MM/DD. When I hold the cursor over it, it shows the correct date.
Any ideas what might be causing this and/or how to correct?

Upper case DD = day of year - ie 2 Feb is 32 day of the year

Use lower case instead, i.e.

MM/dd

PS when on properties window, Clock tab, click on "Format Elements"
ans select "Date" elements to see them all.

In my world 2 Feb is the 33rd day of the year !

Now for your new explanation :)

My explanation stands (except that I should have said D instead of DD
but they both do the same).

So I took the 32 from nr's post which, in hind site, I see he wrote on
1st Feb and looked at my clock which showed 2nd Feb - Not my fault if
the other side of the world is is a day behind us!!

From the help file for TclockEX:-

Thanks to all for your great replies. I had checked out the 'format
properties', but the 'day of year' ones are at the bottom of the list
and I didn't see them. Next time I'll look more closely, but I
appreciate the great help provided.
