SUMMARY
=======
 
The following date format is not supported in Microsoft Money versions
4.0 and 4.0a for Windows 95.
 
   yyyymmdd
 
If you set your Regions Settings to format numbers in this format,
Money displays your numbers in the following format:
 
   <current year>m<current month>d<current day>
 
For example, 1/18/96 displays as 1996m1d18
 
MORE INFORMATION
================
 
Windows 95 allows you to change the date format used in Windows
to yyyymmdd. This format should display the date without any
delimiters between the year, month, and day. However, with this
formatting, the date will not appear correctly in Money versions 4.0
and 4.0a.
 
Money 4.0 was designed to use standard date format settings for the
United States. This limitation has been removed in Microsoft Money
version 5.0 for Windows 95.
