Hi Bernd, Dos386, > I'd like to see YYYY-MM-DD (with dashes) and without COUNTRY.
... or Japanese YYYYMMDD as Bernd mentioned ... >> makes sorting files by date so much easier. > > :-) ...or all the other date formattings: You can just set your country depending on your taste. As long as you do not use nlsfunc, nothing will try to make your keyboard or font Japanese. Simply pick a place where date, time and number formats match your taste, e.g. German dd.mm.yyyy hh:mm 1.000,00 for COUNTRY even if your LANG setting for strings, DISPLAY fonts (if any) and keyboard layout (if any other than BIOS default US QWERTY) are totally different ;-) Eric PS: Note that COUNTRY also influences the "yes no characters" and currency sign and a few other things... Some countries even have a slightly specific collate order (e.g. how to sort accented chars). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BlackBerry® DevCon Americas, Oct. 18-20, San Francisco, CA The must-attend event for mobile developers.
