I run a finnish website which means that we format the date differently.
Eg. 2/6/2001 --> 6.2.2001
I just learned that the Session.LCID = 1033 in config.asp changes the default date format to English (United States). If I change it to 1035 (Finnish) or erase the line of code, will the forum work correctly with the default finnish dates? I mean, the forum has been using the english dates for 6 months now.
If all you want is for the dates on the forum to display with periods instead of slashes, then this can be added to the forum code. It would just be a matter of editing inc_functions.asp to add the new date format, and then editing admin_config_datetime.asp to add the choice to the dropdown menu.
I would also like to have the names of the days and months in finnish.
The big problem is that the Session.LCID = 1033 messes up my primary website. After you have been at the forum, all dates and times are messed up (they are in english) on several pages.
Well, I can always add Session.LCID = 1035 to all pages on my site.

I have the same problem here in France. LCID 1036.
A quick fix to avoid this disagrement is to isolate your forum in IIS. To do so, only have to make the folder containing the forum become an application (with MMC > properties). This way, the forum with LCID 1033 will not affect/modify your root web with LCID 1035.
Then only have to do what Richard said to display dates the finn way in the forum.
