We have recently installed 3 new Win95 Pc's in our office, and have
transferred a small application which was programmed with Visual Basic
(source code long since lost) from our old 3.1 machines.

This application requires a Uk type date input (dd/mm/yy), but only one
of the three supposedly indentical new PC's will accept this input. The
other two will not accept a day of the month over 12. Presumably it is
looking for a US type input (mm/dd/yy). This program ran with no probs
on our old machines. Is there any Windows enviroment type files that
could affect a compiled VB program in this way? I am confused :)
