Hi,

After installing Evolution, the date format for entering birthdays was MDY. I edited the preferences and see under contacts it was set to "Use locale default" (which it identifies correctly, but should therefore have been using DMY).

I changed the format to a preset item in the drop-down selection to force it to %d.%m.%y %H:%M:%S which didn't change the birthday field behaviour. Have done the same in Calendar and Tasks, still no change.

Any ideas if/where you can change the date format for the Birthday field in contacts in Evolution?

Thanks

I use Evolution on operating system Ubuntu 9.1. The OS is set to UK formats when installing. The birthdays entered are automatically formatted as DMY as this is UK standard. I would expect this to be the case with any Linux OS.
