Hi all,

Somehow the date settings on client systems on a domain is shown in MM/DD/YYYY format and not DD/MM/YYYY format. I have tried to rectify this by GPO user preferences (regional settings) on the domain controller and verified the system date format of the server as well, but I still cannot find where the date format on the client systems are getting its date format from.

I have already tried the administrative settings on the regional tab and 'copy to' option within control panel but have had no success. Whats more strange is that the adminisrator when logged on the client system displays the correct date format but when I logoff from admin account to the user account on the domain the date format reverts back to US version. Very annoying. Can anyone help with this ?

Thanks.

Drakul.
 
Forgot to add I have checked the registry key located at:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\International

and the date formats seem to be what I need for the domain controller but still the client systems do not change the date format. Any help? Thanks.

D.
