David, are you sure you've understood what "english" denotes in Revolution?
From the docs:

english
Used with the date and time functions to specify a date or time in the format used in the United States.

So "20/4/02" is not an english date....

Best,

Mark

I have been testing/working with the new date fixes in 2.8.1 and have a
problem with english dates - which I cannot convert properly:

           put "20/4/02" into testDate
           -- convert testDate from english date to dateItems
           convert testDate from short english date to dateItems
           put testDate

           put "20/4/02" into testDate
           -- convert testDate from system date to dateItems
           convert testDate from short english date to dateItems
           put testDate

           put "6/4/02" into testDate
           -- convert testDate from english date to dateItems
           convert testDate from short english date to dateItems
           put testDate

           put "6/4/02" into testDate
           convert testDate from english date to seconds
           convert testDate to dateItems
           put testDate
           break

Is this a bug I should file? Either way how can convert the english dates
back - do I have to manually change the order of the items myself in a
script?
