Setting System Time on Install

[NewsArchive]

Hi

I want to be able to check the System Time format on install and set
the clock to 24-hour format if not already set.

Can I do this within SB6 ? I figure it will need a script variable,
but was unable to find it in the help.

Cheers
Kim

No problem. I'll post a demo script.

See attached "SetTimeFormat.sb6" demo project for SetupBuilder and source
code snipped screenshot.

This project lets you check the local time format and set it to 24-hours
format if it's in 12-hours format or to 12-hours format if it is in 24-hours
format.

It should also work fine on Vista (both 32- and 64-bit).

Does this help?

By the way, to set it to the 12-hours AM/PM format, you should set it to
"hh:mm:ss tt" (see attached screenshot).
