Date Format in VAMPP (change) - Windows XP
CHANGING DATE FORMAT IN VAMPP - Windows XP:
Changing the Regional and Language Options
You can use the Regional and Language Options tool in Control Panel to customize the way Windows handles dates, times, currency values, and numbers.
To open the Regional and Language Options tool:
If you do not see the format you want in the Short date or Long date boxes, use the following guidelines:
Note: Type an uppercase M for the month setting. The lowercase m is used for the minute setting.
To specify how your computer interprets two-digit years, on the Date tab, under When a two-digit year is entered, interpret it as a year between, type or click the year that you want to configure this setting to end at. This feature has a 100-year span (the default span is 1930 to 2029).
Four-digit years are not affected by this option. A program that uses this option to interpret two-digit years considers the years between (and including) 30 and 99 to be preceded by 19, and years between (and including) 00 and 29 to be preceded by 20. For example, 99 is interpreted as 1999 and 01 is interpreted as 2001.
NOTE: Not all programs use this option. If the program you are using does not correctly interpret two-digit years, consult the documentation or manufacturer of that program.
Restart your VAMPP program and everything should be able to be entered in the format that you have defined.
