Hi all,

Does anyone know how I change the date format in the fax banner? Its
showing mm/dd/yyyy but I'm in the UK which means that formats kind of
ambiguous over here!

TIA

Peter.

Hi Peter,

The info for the banner is read from the following Registry key:
HKEY_USER\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\International

To change that info, go to Control Panel, Regional Settings and make the changes for all the
settings you want..such as country, date, time, etc.

You may have to reboot for all this to get written to the fax registry keys.

Thanks,
Gary
