Date Added Field Has Changed Format?
« on: May 23, 2021, 01:39:11 pm »

For the past 6 months I've inputed the Date Added manually using format 05/23/21 and this is how it appears in all screens.  This morning all of a sudden it appears as 05/23/2021,  Using MC26 on Window 10 DT.  I've spent 3 hrs trying to find a setting to format dates but no luck?  Help me if you can! Tks, David

You'll find information about dates on our wiki.  Here, for example:

Dates are displayed using the date format specified for the OS. So you likely have Windows itself (or Mac/Linux) showing dates as MM/dd/yyyy instead of MM/dd/yy, and MC is just following suit.

You can change it in the Regional Settings control panel.
