>If you use this date format you have to enter the date in the same format. With the same sample and a date of 2001-11-26 you don't get an error, but the date format is changed to the windows setting after exiting the field.

Thank you for yyyy-mm-yy tip.

How I can enter dates in the same format as in my windows setting, dd.mm.yyyy ?

Also: if I enter 2001-11-26 in first time, and press tab, date is shown
as 1/26/01 (my windows setting is dd.mm.yyyy !)
If I enter 2001-11-26 second time, and press tab, date is not converted at all !? It shows 2001-11-26 as entered. Why ?
