language problem from a download

Featured Replies

Hi guys,

I downloaded a filemaker database that is quite useful - but have a problem.

It has a calculation field:

DayName (Appt_Date)

which normally would come out with

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, etc

mine now says:

Montiag, DunsBensht, Meiteg, Klegahoogan, Crabskull, etc

I can't see any reason why this is considering I'm using my User Dictionary and System Settings is on.

Help, how do I tell it that I'm over in the UK and to stop calculating in Dutch or whatever it is?

Thanks

Try saving a copy of the file as a clone, and reimporting the data. At that point, it should pick up default values from your system (rather than retaining the defaults which were 'imprinted' when it was first created).

Montiag, DunsBensht, Meiteg, Klegahoogan, Crabskull, etc

What language it is I do not know, but definitely not Dutch.. though it reminds me of the soundtrack of Lord of the Rings, it might be some european-skandinavian language..
