Can anyone tell me if it is possible to change the DATE FORMAT on 1608 sets. Or any set for that matter?

The customer wants DD/MM/YY. By default "US Locale" (I am in CANADA), shows the date as MM/DD/YY. If I set the user's locale to "CAN-FRENCH" the date shows as DD-MM-YYYY, which is great except for the fact that all of the words on the phone are in french.......

There has to be a spot in the language file that states "Date Format D%/M%/Y5" or something like that.

The closest I could find was in the 46xxsettings.txt file, you can change it, however it is only a setting for 16xx SIP phones, not h323.
 
Use the ara locale, it is most identical to enu but the date shows as dd/mm/yy
 
I would guess that if they want the date displayed in the wrong order they must be french =)

Canada is part of the British Commonwealth so most of it is indeed civilized (not sure about the F****h speaking part though)

I know that we have a military co-operation program with the acronym CANUKUS - Canada-UK-US pronounced Can-Nuke-Us & basically means Don't tel the french :)

I work in a country with Dutch and French speaking people, the Dutch natives must learn French on the basic school, the French natives don't need to learn Dutch.
The French part of the country is the poorest part but the have the biggest mouth and always are the first to go on strike.
 
Now you know why the uk ended up voting for brexit :)
