In what application or where does it show Monday as the first day of the
week?

In what application?

Sorry. It shows in the Clock, MS Outlook and in an MS Access application
using the Calendar. Essentially, all calendars are affected.

Eh? What "clock"? The standard clock in the systray (if that is what you are
refering to doesn't have a calendar function)

Tools-Options-Calendar Options and change the first day of the week.

I suspect that will be cured by the above

Hi Gordon,

Yes, I am referring to the clock on the system tray. If you double click on
it it shows a calendar (used to set the date) which starts on Monday rather
than Sunday.

Hi Gordon - part 2.

FYI-I tried on my computer and changed Outlook but that did not change the
calendar anywhere else.

Thanks,

This is locale specific and may have been changed based on where he said
he is located. The value is stored in the registry at
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\International. With that key selected
you will see an iFirstDayOfWeek entry in the right pane. Have him
change the value there from 0 to 6.

Don't think you can change that......

Gordon, I'm having an issue with Outlook Calendar. I have selected Sunday as the first day of the week under Tools-Options-Calendar, but it prints the calendar starting with Monday. If I choose any other day of the week, it will start with the day that I selected, but not if I choose Sunday. Any ideas?? It's driving me crazy!
