Title: Hal's minor date confusion.
Post by: Flash_Addict on January 08, 2010, 07:57:30 am: Hi everyone,

i am an animation student and have been looking for way to speed up my working habbits. Hal has some really awesome advantages especially in the memory and date keeping areas.

I have however hit a snag. When i ask hal to remember a date ( an example would be "i have an assessment on the 01-08 at 10:00 am." ) for some ungodly reason he puts it months ahead like in September. I was just wondering how to fix this?

Thank you.

i have an assessment on 09-01. it does place the appointment on the 9th in the apointment book BUT his responce is "You have an assessment on Wednesday, 1 September 2010.

clearly hes sayong one thing and doing another. I am not sure if he will even remind me untill september.

Still seems like an American/Euro date format problem.Might be something Robert can fix or maybe if you switch your Windows locality preferences to American it might fix itself. At least then you would know where the problem is.
