Sorry, that was a typo: This NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init]; [dateFormatter setDateStyle:NSDateFormatterBehavior10_4]; [dateFormatter setDateFormat:@"EEE_MMM_dd_yyyy"]; NSString * filenameDate = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:date]; still produces 02/02/2011 _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
