[Gambas-user] Locale question and gambas and dates.

[Dag-Jarle Johansen]

ups, just opposite

dd/mm/yyyy is in fact european

If you need to convert the datestring, write a little sub, I do have
something lying around here, if you want to. I am used to convert almost
every date to MySql-formats and back

Dag-Jarle
