Problem

Symptoms: If a customer using the Hebrew Language Module or the Arabic Language Module in Right-to-Left Mode changes the Date Format to include the time, the time displays backwards. For example, if the customer sets the Date Format to 8:90, the time displays as mp00:2. Solutions: To work around the problem, edit the WP.LRS file to have the pm and am backwards and enter the date format as 09:8. The steps to modify the WP.LRS are: 1. Retrieve the WP.LRS file (found in the same directory as WP.EXE). 2. Search for HE or AR (depending on which language module is being used). 3. Three lines below the HE language code, it says am. Change the am to ma. 4. Change the fourth line from pm to mp. 5. Save the file. Status: Sent to Development ***|sent to dev|*** Press Enter on link token.
