On all our VB code (which we no longer use) we did an explicit DATE.FORMAT from the uniobjects session as the login is bypassed for those sessions.

Hello all, Has anyone else found the following, or am I missing something obvious here? I've been working on some VB6 code running uniobjects (v5.2, as is the version of Unidata/NT), and had the need to pass a date out to a unibasic subroutine called via the subroutine object. Said subroutine does a little bobbing about with the passed date, and then constructs a further date (sort of day:"/":month:"/":year construct), which is then ICONVed and returned to the VB program. The problem that I found was the the ICONV in the databasic returned an internal date as though the originally constructed date was in MM/DD/YY (American) format, although being in the UK we use the European DD/MM/YY format, as specified in the DATE.FORMAT verb (on the server, and also executed as part of the login). Is this correct? Have I missed something? Thanks for any replies.
