Changing Date / Time Problems

[weboneau]

I have administration rights through a remote connection. I have changed the date / time on the server through the control panel to be set for Australia format, however when one of the users logs on the work on MYOB, the date is shown in the American format. When I open MYOB under my login, it is shown in the Australian format.

 

How can I set the date/time in my users login to be in Australian format. Her login only allows her to open directly to the MYOB software, no permissions to see any other part of the server.

The regional settings are per user settings, so you won't be able to change them like that for everyone. If the users don't have the rights to change their own regional settings, then you can either edit their NTUSER.DAT hives to change the setting (Under Control Panel > International > sShortDate and sLongDate keys) or you can try setting a group policy for the server. You couldn't do a group policy on dates prior to Server 2008, but now you can do it under User Configuration > Preferences > Control Panel Settings > Regional Options. Right click the Regional Options and select New > Regional Options. I haven't tried this, so I make no promises.
