Form of dates on QSL/Label - dl5dsm - 30-04-2019
Hi Jordi,
I use SWL in german language, also to print my QSL's.
Using the form 01.03.2019 is possible , but unclear in some countries. I like to use 01.Mar.2019.
But the software print only 01.Mrz.2019.
If I switch the software to english, the form of dates does not switch to Mar., it is ever Mrz.
Pse change the form of dates in all languages to the english monthnames!
Tnx
Helmut

Hi Helmut,
Sorry I thought I replied you before! This is not a bug. The date format is taken from the language defined in your operating system not in Swisslog. If you want to see the month names displayed in English, you have to temporally change the language in your Windows Regional settings to English, print labels then change it back to German afterwards. Please read this chapter of the Swisslog help to know about formatting symbols used in Reports and Queries:

You will find this chapter in the Logbook view section of the Swisslog help.
