System: LabVIEW 6.0.2, Windows 2000 or NT4, Norwegian or Danish regional settings (have not tested others).
I have an application (made and built in LabVIEW 6.0.2) where a numeric control with time format is used to select a date...This works fine on 90% of the PCs it is run on...however on some the numeric control has a will on its own...when you enter 10.05.2001 it changes its value to 05.10.2001...and reverse...if you enter 2002 it might change to 2020..11.03 might be changed to 01.03 etc. There is no code writing to a local of the control or anything like that ...the problem seems to be a bug with the control itself.
I have tried to figure out what could cause this...and it seems that if you choose the date format to be s
ystem date you can turn on the problem...This could make sense if the control did not accept too high month numbers in the day input and then to tried to guess the intended input switched the two around...but that is not the case...
Now - is there some regional option or other that can be adjusted to get rid of this...or do I have too build the application again with the control set to use custom format?
