Hi,

I have an ASPX app that checks the Culture of the machine.

My PC is currently set to have English(US) dates and US
Currency.

When I check the Culture it returns "en-IE".

The machine did have this original setting but I changed
it to English(US) for dates and currency.

I also removed and reinstalled VS.NET and the .NET
Framework as I thought this may be also be using the
setting of teh time it was installed.

I still had the problem.

I noticed in teh registry that he Default user settings
were set to be "en-IE" etc. So I manually changed these to
have the same settings as a machine with English(US) date
and currency.

I still have the problem. The problem being that my
CultureINfo retirn en-IE.

This is driving me crazy and really holding me up.

Any Ideas?

Thanks,
Clive.

That suggests to me that maybe although the *system* locale is US, your
*user* locale is Irish. Which OS are you using? In XP Pro under
Advanced there's a box saying "Apply all settings to the current user
account and to the default user profile." Maybe that could help you?
 
W2K Server.

I have deleted all profiles in the hope that they would be
recreated and that they would use the new date setting but
it has'nt. Any ideas?

Well, you'd presumably have to keep going with *a* profile to stay
logged in. What happens if you create a new user, log in as them, and
then run your test program?

Check your web.config file and {windows
directory}\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.2.3\CONFIG\machine.config for the
<globalization> element because you can set the default Culture and
UICulture from there.
