| | Contacts birthday month and day are reversed When I enter the month and day or use the pop up calendar to enter the birthdate in the contacts birthday field the month and day get reversed when the month or day is less than 12. for example: when I select from the pop up calendar Jan 8, 2009 (01/08/09) what gets entered is Aug 1, 2009 (08/01/09). The same thing happens if I enter 01/08/09 it enters 08/01/09 after I do a save. I am using Version 2009 (Build 14.0.8050.1202) Thanks, Tom |

| | RE: Contacts birthday month and day are reversed After updateing wlm to the latest version which did not help any...I figured maybe it was something to do with the os date format. After switching the Regional and Language Options - Country format from Canada to US, the month and day did not reverse. Is there something in the Canada country format I need to change?

| | Re: Contacts birthday month and day are reversed Just a guess, but windows contacts birthday field assuming your system clock is set to the right time, most likely will get a little confused when you try to set to some date in the future as a birth date. Try Jan 8, 2008 or 01/08/08 H Brown "tominregina" <tominregina@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:87E01D54-D7EB-4760-981D-DA9A962E519A@xxxxxx Quote: > When I enter the month and day or use the pop up calendar to enter the > birthdate in the contacts birthday field the month and day get reversed > when > the month or day is less than 12. > > for example: when I select from the pop up calendar Jan 8, 2009 (01/08/09) > what gets entered is Aug 1, 2009 (08/01/09).

| | Re: Contacts birthday month and day are reversed Create a new contact using the same information as the contact file your having problem with. Then delete the old one.

| | Re: Contacts birthday month and day are reversed Birthdates for the Birthday calendar, iirc, are pulled from your contact's birth date entry in *their* online Profile. -- ...winston ms-mvp mail "H Brown" <H.Brown@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:#i5ADCy2JHA.5728@xxxxxx Quote: > Create a new contact using the same information as the contact file your > having problem with.
