Yeesh! Sounds nasty! Looks like it'd be easier to reapply the changes to the modified event_functions.asp file included in the ZIP. Thanks for the reply, ruirib. 
One other thing on this, the Readme for the Non US DAte Events MOD tells me to replace a function in inc_functions.asp. Currently the function it's telling me to replace looks like this:
function StrToDate(strDateTime)
Dim controlDate, testDate
if ChkDateFormat(strDateTime) then
'Testing for server format
controlDate = DateToStr(Now())
testDate = DateToStr(cdate("" & Mid(controlDate, 5,2) & "/" & Mid(controlDate, 7,2) & "/" & Mid(controlDate, 1,4) & " " & Mid(controlDate, 9,2) & ":" & Mid(controlDate, 11,2) & ":" & Mid(controlDate, 13,2) & ""))
if strComp(testDate,controlDate)=0 Then
StrToDate = cdate("" & Mid(strDateTime, 5,2) & "/" & Mid(strDateTime, 7,2) & "/" & Mid(strDateTime, 1,4) & " " & Mid(strDateTime, 9,2) & ":" & Mid(strDateTime, 11,2) & ":" & Mid(strDateTime, 13,2) & "")
else
StrToDate = cdate("" & Mid(strDateTime, 7,2) & "/" & Mid(strDateTime, 5,2) & "/" & Mid(strDateTime, 1,4) & " " & Mid(strDateTime, 9,2) & ":" & Mid(strDateTime, 11,2) & ":" & Mid(strDateTime, 13,2) & "")
end if
else
tmpDate = DatePart("m",strForumTimeAdjust) & "/" & DatePart("d",strForumTimeAdjust) & "/" & DatePart("yyyy",strForumTimeAdjust) & " " & DatePart("h",strForumTimeAdjust) & ":" & DatePart("n",strForumTimeAdjust) & ":" & DatePart("s",strForumTimeAdjust)
StrToDate = "" & tmpDate
end if
end function
And this is the modified function from the readme:
function StrToDate(strDateTime)
if ChkDateFormat(strDateTime) then
StrToDate = cdate("" & MonthName(cint(Mid(strDateTime, 5,2))) & " " & Mid(strDateTime, 7,2) & ", " & Mid(strDateTime, 1,4) & " " & Mid(strDateTime, 9,2) & ":" & Mid(strDateTime, 11,2) & ":" & Mid(strDateTime, 13,2) & "")
else
StrToDate = "" & strForumTimeAdjust
end if
end function
which looks like the OldstrToDate function to me. Is it definitely OK for me to replace the first block of code with the second? Or am I better off going through events_functions.asp, changing all occurences of strToDate to OldstrToDate?
