I have an application that will be distributed to a number of countries with different date formats. My problem is that the format of date columns remains the US format, whatever I do in terms of setting the application's locale, changing the browser's language or setting the column's display date property to Custom. Date fields that are displayed in a form based xpage is not a problem; they appear according to the user's settings. Only when the data source is a Domino view the issue occurs.

Since the US date format is strange and ambiguous, I have been forced to convert the value in the date column to a text string with @Text(@Date(@Created)), which returns the server's date format, yyyy-mm-dd. . This is not a bad thing, since the ISO format is the only 'secure' and sortable format, but I would prefer to give the users their own date.

I haven't been able to find any documentation of a case like this.
