Hi John,

The problem is that the value for the SET DATE is 'BRITISH/FRENCH' not BRITISH. You can fix it.

USE (HOME(7) + "envmgr") AGAIN
REPLACE SetValues WITH STRTRAN(SetValues, "BRITISH/FRENCH", "BRITISH")  ;
	FOR UniqueId = "DATE" AND ("BRITISH/FRENCH" $ SetValues )
USE

BTW, MS didn't provide source code for the environment manager application.
