New Regional Options / Date Formats getting changed.
Hi,

This is a potentially dumb question, but it has me stumped anyways.

On a W2K box at work, something, somewhere is resetting its Regional Options back to English (US) every now and then. Still haven't quite pinned down if it's happening weekly, monthly, or what.

But in short, it's wreaking havoc with stuff we have running on that box. I know having code that depends on a particular date format isn't clever - in my defence, I didn't write it :)

Is there any easy way of telling who/what causes this to happen? I've only tried Event Viewer so far and it's not been of much use.

Any/all advice appreciated.
Two out of three people wonder where the other one is.
New Regmon?
Use a registry monitor like Regmon [link|http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/Regmon.html|http://www.sysintern...ities/Regmon.html] to monitor whatever key(s) store that information (possibly HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Control Panel\\International )?
