I tried to enter a date on the cover page on word 2010 byt it keep reverting to the US format. I have checked all the settings in word and on the pc, is it a glitch?
Insert Tab --> Date & Time --> Language set to U.K From the drop down menu before you insert the date ?
Also what settings have you checked or looked at ?
Yep, all settings are showing English UK and our date format. I have checked the settings in Word, regional settings on the pc spell check regional settings etc. All set to UK.Quote:

Could be language prefs, Select All (Ctrl + A) and go to Review>Language>Set Proofing Language.
nope, seems like there is something hidden in the dark depths of the registry methinks.......
Entirely odd, you could upload the document so some of us here can open it and see if it happens for us or not..
Completely remove and re install Office ?
Was it entered as a Word field? If you press ALT+F9 (to toggle view all field codes) you can edit the field code to format the date how you want it:
Code:{DATE \@ "dd/MM/yyyy" \* MERGEFORMAT }
