I have Informix SE and INet version 5 (for RS6000 AIX and MS Windows) The dates in the database are british format DMY/ But INet (or ODBC) is reading them as american MDY/ format. I have set the DB_Date variable in the INet setup to DMY/ but it doesn't seem to work. Any ideas on pinning down the source of the confusion.... I am accessing Inet through the Q&E ODBC drivers - and this might be part of the problem. -- Alex McLintock [also alexmc@biccdc.co.uk]
