Change Date Format

[Guest JT]

I know about changing the date format in the Regional Settings control panel

option. What I am wondering though is whether or not there is a utility that

will allow the change of the date format to be changed to something like

September/7/2007 as opposed to 09/7/2007 when being displayed in windows

explorer and using details. I would like to be able to use the full or short

prefix of the month instead of its number.

 

Has anyone been able to accomplish something like this? I understand of

course its not supported but I would like to be able to utilize something

like this for some of our file servers.

Just play with the various strings in Regional settings, e.g.

 

dddd, d MMMM yyyy

 

You can put your MMMM anywhere you like!

Thanks. Did not realize this was possible, I tried it and it gave me the

results I was after.
