Well, I often see it, particularly on government forms. On the other hand, I have often seen dates and wondered what format it was, as there is nothing to indicate it or the date it actually represents. Some times I can guess, based on context or by looking for other dates to determine which format makes sense. i.e. a number greater than 12 is likely not a month. ;-) Given the amount of international interchange, even ignoring the fact that local custom is often not followed, the only way to be sure is to use the ISO spec and nothing else. Isn't it also part of that ISO certification that companies follow for business practices? -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
