I don't think 97 cared about anything past seconds.

The computer's regional setting for long time was hh:nn:ss: tt instead of hh:nn:ss tt Why it didn't affect A97 but did A2k and A2k3 I don't know. Corrected the machine and it seems to work fine. Though I still changed all my vb and vba code to use the hh:nn:ss AMPM instead of general date and long time. I now have to check that our other computers do not have same mistype in the regional settings.
