OK, I have changed my system locale setting for language and location to 
French/France. Just for good measure, I also changed the KDE desktop setting 
and here's the calendar for proof that date translation is just fine on the

I still get English language dates on my test form; see the other pic.

Should I need to re-compile Gambas on my new French desktop?
