detecting date style |
|---|
| message from Dave on 5 May 2004 |
How can i detect the date style that the users system is using.
I have some customers that have dd/mm/yy and some that have dd/mm/yyyy
I have a input mask (99/99/00;0;_) that is set for dd/mm/yy.
Is it possible to check what format the system uses and then dynamically
alter
the input mask in the OnOpen Event
thanks
Dave

Look at
http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0017.htm
to get the short date format you would make the following call
fLocaleInfo(LOCALE_SSHORTDATE)
but have a look at Allen's reference as well.
