Khai, Builder does have global variables for ShortDateFormat, LongDateFormat and currency/number stuff. Look in the help for ShortDateFormat, it should give you a list of the variables and where their values come from. Mark "Newbie" <khaitrinh@ureach.com> wrote in message news:3cf513d0$1_1@dnews... > > I just started supporting a project that uses Borland C++ Builder 5, Enterprise Suite. I know some C++ but am new to Borland and internationalization. I am also new to this company and all the developers have left. We have an application in English and we need to support the Netherland by the next two months. Our main concern is the date format differences between US and the Netherlands. Our format is mm/dd/yyyy where as the Netherlands uses dd/mm/yyyy. What is the best approach to handle this in Borland Builder? Is there any global regional setting from Windows that Borland can access to tell me whether it's a Netherlands installed or US installed so I can proceed accordingly? Any help is greatly appreciated. > > Thanks, > Khai
