>>I am using MSCAL Calendar 7 Active X control. I wish to have Monday showing as the first column. I have set FirstDay to 2 - but Monday shows as 2nd column rather than the first in my development environment. When I build the exe and deploy it to clients it displays correctly with Monday as the first column. But it still shows as the second column on my development PC when I run the compiled exe. All PCs (my development and clients) are running XP.

If I change the location it makes no difference. But if I change the language, on those PCs which are showing the control correctly the text changes to the relevant language. On those PCs which are showing the ActiveX incorrectly (always with Sunday as the first day), if I change the language the control does not show any change. So, it looks like there is something occurring on PCs where the Active X control is not respecting the Regional Language Setting and is defaulting to Sunday as the first day on the calendar.

So we are getting somewhere, just not sure where.....how can I force the ActiveX to respect the regional settings?

Any further input, gratefully received.
