Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has used InstallScript and know of any
function which would determine the system's locale, i.e. if the month came
first or the day came first etc ... when getting a timestamp from other
programs such as the DOS prompt. If it does, then I don't have to consult
the Win32 API (GetLocale ... which I have no idea how to use). Thanks in
advance.

There's a sample script for "Setting Locale Info" at
http://www.installsite.org/isp_os.htm . This may help you to Get the
information, too.

I've figured it out, but I had to use the WIN32 API
Kernel32.dll had to be used ....
GetlocaleInfo( 1024, LOCAL_IDATE, svTmp, i);
where 1024 is some constant, look up GetLocaleInfor in Win32API help.
Local_IDATE is 0x021.
