I recommend running regmon from www.sysinternals.com to watch to see what
registry keys the Mapics Borwser is looking in that might be causing the
problem.
 
Also, there are a couple of places you must set correctly for some
applications to set the date formats right. I don't know what
"SetShortDate2Dutch.exe" does, but I have a Kix script that pokes some
registry values to set dates for our Belgium users. We had to set both the 
HKCU\Control Panel\International\sShortDate to "dd/MM/yyyy", but we also had
to set HKCU\Control Panel\International\iDate to "1'. You have to do both
settings for everything to agree. If you are just setting one of those
values then that may be causing the Mapics Browser problem. 
 
Good luck!

Supporting dd/mm/yyyy date format on XPe 

Here is the setup: 

Xpe farm based in the US with 2 Xpe Fr3 servers (W2K server SP4 will all
updates) in Europe. The servers in Europe are configured for the date format
of dd/mm/yyyy. We have a login script that looks for membership in a
particular AD group and if you are a member it runs a program called
"SetShortDate2Dutch.exe". Once the user is logged in they get the date
format (dd/mm/yyyy) in applications like Notepad and windows explorer but
not in "Mapics Browser". We publish individual applications and not the
desktop. Any ideas?
