I'll have to look up about FScript since I didn't know about it. Anyway, using setDateStyle:NSDateFormatterShortStyle works, though it still doesn't make sense to me that I should set a particular style for reading in data when I can't be sure what format the data is going to be provided to me now or in the future. However, setUsesGroupingSeparator:YES still has no effect for me. May I send you (off-list) the test project? Thanks again.
