wiredhosting Posted April 20, 2006 Posted April 20, 2006 ACtually my fmp works with mm/dd/yyyy i wanted to change it to work as dd/mm/yyyy Thanks a lot!!!
comment Posted April 20, 2006 Posted April 20, 2006 Actually, your FMP works with whatever formats are set in your OS, or stored within the file. If you change your Windows settings to dd/mm/yy, any NEW files will use that. Older files can be set to use the current system format (in File > File Options... > Text > Data Entry), or you can clone them under the new OS format settings.
wiredhosting Posted April 20, 2006 Author Posted April 20, 2006 Thanks for the quick answer! i a running windows xp, where do i change the time configuration to be mm/dd/yyyy ? Thank you very much!

coconutt2000 Posted April 21, 2006 Posted April 21, 2006 You can also go to layout mode and select the date field, then Format -> Date.
comment Posted April 21, 2006 Posted April 21, 2006 That will change the display - but not data entry.
coconutt2000 Posted April 21, 2006 Posted April 21, 2006 Of course. That's true. But it is also a valid option.
