[AccessD] Date Format Again

Dear List:

I thought I had the date format problem solved but in Taiwan they use the US format but they've got their machines set to yyyy-mm-dd.  

The problem is that I have a license expiration date encrypted in a key and so the routine that decodes the key yields (among other things) the expiration date which I compare to the system date.

So I guess I'm going to have to use an API to get the regional setting for short date format?  I've been mucking around in the Knowledgebase but can't seem to find what I want.

Does anyone know the format for retrieving this item?  

I guess I will have to use a Select Case on the short date format to do the decryption to yield a short date in the local format.  And just add cases as I find more short date formats.

MTIA,
