If I can get this done how can I still display the dates in european format at my web page? Do I have to break the date to pieces and some how re-arrange it to the DD.MM.YYYY format or is the some clever function for this that can automatically do this?

Once there, however, I would think you could rearrange it with Date format. -- Dr. Joseph Dolan: Isn't there a children's book about an elephant named Babar? Fletch: I don't know. I don't have any.
