Hello Rathi,

Yes, this is the same for my another XP machine too!

So, I think we can utilize the same to find out the user's date format.

Thanks Grigory Filatov for the report.

If possible please send some code regarding how to retrieve date format from Windows Registry in this thread.

(BTW, I don't know how to read registry value from HMG)

TIA.

Regards.

Yes. You can see a sample in c:\hmg\samples\registry.

Now, for getting the current date format, we can use the following function.

hb_ValToStr( RegistryRead( "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\International\sShortDate" ) )

Hi

Code: Select all

    MsgBox( SET( _SET_DATEFORMAT ) )   // mm/dd/yy
    SET CENT ON
    MsgBox( SET( _SET_DATEFORMAT ) )   // MM/DD/YYYY
    SET DATE ANSI
    MsgBox( SET( _SET_DATEFORMAT ) )   // YYYY.MM.DD

When the only tool you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail

Regards
