= SUMMARY =

The following date format is not supported in Microsoft Money versions 4.0 and 4.0a for Windows 95.

yyyymmdd

If you set your Regions Settings to format numbers in this format, Money displays your numbers in the following format:

m d

For example, 1/18/96 displays as 1996m1d18

= MORE INFORMATION =

Windows 95 allows you to change the date format used in Windows to yyyymmdd. This format should display the date without any delimiters between the year, month, and day. However, with this formatting, the date will not appear correctly in Money versions 4.0 and 4.0a.

Money 4.0 was designed to use standard date format settings for the United States. This limitation has been removed in Microsoft Money version 5.0 for Windows 95.
