Gunnar,
Thanks for you reply. I don't have any changes in the DateFormat property so it should stay to the default setting. However, the previous thread answered my dilemma.

>>Hi everyone,

>>Here is a curious problem; one of those which is driving me nuts. I have a little app which is designed to work with a user defined 'BRITISH' or 'AMERICAN' set date format. The user makes his choice and an 'A' or 'B' is stored in a table. An application method on loadup reads that table and then sets the date.
>>
>>However, when I open forms in the app - the date format switches back and forth (forex: when the init of a grid fires, it is setting the date format to American!!!) I have checked every method in my code and the only place I allow for a SET DATE change is in that one single application method. That method is only called on startup, and when each form is loaded (default form class init). In testing, I remove all calls at the form level to the set date - and set the date to British by default; and the same thing still happens (the date switches back to American).
>>
>>As a side note: I am not using system date in that some clients who use this app are sending international - some to the States, some to other countries (which we limit to British date format).
>>
>>Has anyone ever had difficulty with SET DATE changing? Does anyone have a suggestion? TIA
>>
>>Ric
