Hi Brian

Well for the next 2 weeks as you know I will have my devices set to UK
layout, so we can work on this problem together! (SMILE)

I tested the issues with Australian English and you are correct in that
it gets confused with dates.

I'm sorry David I have reported sooner, but I have been madly packing
for my flight which has already been delayed once!

OK, I have partially discovered the problem with the date confusion but
it highlights another problem.

When submitting the original bug report, it has just occurred to me that
I have my computer regional language options set to Australian English.
When it is set to Australian English, TypeAbility cannot distinguish
between days.  

I changed to UK English, altered the date in the ini file and
TypeAbility does now distinguish between dates reporting the correct
message.  However, now there is a problem with the "good
morning/afternoon" messages.  I am writing this at about 1.50 AM, and
TypeAbility thinks it is the afternoon!  This is because UK regional
language options adopts the 24 hour clock.  I will send the debug report
off list for UK layout, let me know if you need Australian as well
please because this is important to us.

Thank you.
