Someone else asked this a little while ago. Unfortunately no solution was found. Since replying then I've changed from the RC of Windows 7 to the version available to buy and my date format is still in the correct format by UK standards.

Sorry I can't provide an answer but it definitely can be displayed "correctly".

It does but only until I restart Profiler when it reverts back to mm/dd/yyyy.

Right

Everything worked fine under Vista. I then updated (clean install) to Windows 7.

When I open Profiler the dates are all mm/dd/yyyy

I go through the control panel to look at how dates should be formatted and it clearly shows dd/mm/yyyy. The date format on the display in the taskbar is correct. If I click to change it but actually leave it as it is and click apply, then I go switch back to Profiler and click to sort by title/date/whatever the dates change to dd/mm/yyyy. All is good until I close Profiler and then reopen it when the dates revert back to mm/dd/yyyy.

It's strange. Every other programme I have displays the date correctly, expect Profiler.

probably a normal installation rather than ran as an administrator. Should that really make a difference?

Thanks, but I guess it's just a Windows 7 thing.

All the settings are correect from Administrator, User accounts. English (United Kingdom) and the date format is set as dd/mm/yyyy, but Profiler seemingly ignores it.
If I go to make changes to the date setting while Profiler is running, but actually select what it is already set as, then Profiler will display correctely. BUt the moment it is closed and restarted ir reverts back to the mm/dd/yyyy format.

Never had this problem before so it must be something to do with Windows 7.

Odd.
