[AccessD] Date Problem Again

Dear List:

I have an expiration date encoded in a key.  It has the month and year 
of expiration which I extract into two two-character strings mm and yy.  
For the U.S. no problem - I just assemble the date "mm/dd/yy" (where dd 
is always '01') and compare it to the computer's calendar.  But if the 
program is being used outside the U.S. the date has to be assembled 
"dd/mm/yy".  Is there an easy way to find out which format to use or 
another way to get around the mmdd/ddmm problem altogether?

MTIA
