Just to clarify, this is likely because object notation has been enabled; which
essentially upgrades the structure file from v16 to v17, making it unable to be
opened in v16 afterwards.

I was a lot of work. Especially going through a large application and changing

Thanks Jody - yes I can follow all that, no problem :)
Sounds like a fair bit of work though, which I would prefer to avoid ...

In Canada every possible date format was used by different clients. Therefore
we had to write our own date handler. Essentially we handle it this way:
1. We let the system administrator set the format for all dates to be
displayed. This includes all the ways 4D has built in way, but also i
I am not using anything near v16... but have you tried to explicitly
set the display format for the date areas during On Load, using code?
set object format(*"object_name";Date_format)

Thanks Wayne.
I'm using v16r6 and it won't let me revert to 16.3. I don't think v17 is
ready for prime time yet ... Grrr! So, anybody got a suggestion for a
workaround?

Pat,
There’s a 4D bug regarding dates.
What version of v16 are you using? The latest nightly builds of v16 dot

Jody,
I'm using v16 and having the following problem with date formats:
On a UK system, dates in fields and list boxes are incorrectly displayed in
the US format. But when you click into a date field, it changes to the UK
format!
How do you manage this?

Well, looks like the form was corrupt. I rebuilt it using one that was similar,

Nasty date formats. About 15 years ago we created our own tool for the date
entry, and display in 4D. The dates are always stored in date fields, but we
let the user define the way the dates get displayed. This way it does not
matter what the computer’s region or date settings are. The for
