International date formats

In Australia, we use the dd/mm/yy date format. Does Milestones support this format?

I would like to be able to input dates in the dd/mm/yy format. (I am aware that once input, the format can be changed.)

Yes. This is something you need to set via the Windows Control Panel. To do this:

From the Windows Start menu, choose Control Panel.
Double-click the Regional Options icon.
Click the Date tab.
For Short Date Style choose dd-mm-yy.
On this dialog panel, you can also change the date separator to a slash if it is not set to one already.
