dateFormatVariety
Global Property (Added in SenseTalk 2.30)
The dateFormatVariety global property can be set to "A", "B", "C", or "D" to select between four varieties of the date, short date, simple date, and short simple date formats. These formats have all historically displayed dates using a US-centric “month/day” style. Setting the dateFormatVariety to “A” (which is the default) maintains that US style. Variety “B” reverses the order to use a “day/month” style instead, as used in much of the rest of the world. Varieties “C” and “D” are unambiguous formats that use the month name or abbreviation instead of the month number, with variety “C” showing the month before the day and variety “D” showing the day before the month.
