A relatively easy "cure" is to generate dates manually. Of course, this
might not conform to the user's localization settings (eg, mm/dd/yy vs
dd/mm/yy, etc).

Function GetShortDate(d As Date) As String
 Return Str(d.Day) + "/" + Str(d.Month) + "/" + Str(d.Year)
End Function

Yup. Don't use a PC. :)

It's basically up to the OS and/or user settings that determines the
results of many of the built-in Date methods. They can be different
depending on the localization of the computer.
