Visio Header Date Format 1

[fawkes]

I've added the date to the header in Visio but it keeps showing the date the wrong way around.

My PC is set to UK region and the dates are chronological dd/mm/yyyy but the date keeps showing in visio in the American format mm/dd/yyyy so I currently have a 13 month year.

Any ideas how I format the header and why it isn't picking up the settings from my PC?

I figured it out.

It's in a really bizarre place.

Go to File->Properties and on the Summary page set the Language to English (UK) from the annoying default of English (US).

Why, when they sell the software in the UK at inflated prices (and by inflated I mean on average 50% higher) do they not have the decency to set the defaults to UK?

It's as bad as when you buy a book and the spelling's all wrong because they can't be bothered to change the spelling for the UK market.
