FP2000: Regional Settings for Date and Time Are Not Published With Webs (288090)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft FrontPage 2000

This article was previously published under Q288090

For a Microsoft FrontPage 2002 version of this article, see 285648.

SYMPTOMS

When you view a web that you have published to a server, any dates that appear in the web do not use the calendar options that you specified on your local computer. For example, if you select "French (France)" as your locale in the Regional Options tool in Control Panel, you see French month names in your local web. But when you publish the web to a server, the names of the month are in English (or some other language).

CAUSE

The Date and Time component of FrontPage uses the default Regional Options of the server. The calendar settings on your computer are not published with the web. This does not apply to short and long date formats, which are preserved when the web is published.

WORKAROUND

If you need to use the Date and Time feature on the Insert menu in FrontPage, make sure that the server you are publishing to is using the correct Regional Settings to display the proper language.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
