Regional Settings Requirement

The TimeForce system requires that your Windows Regional Settings be set to "English (United States)." The following error may occur (among others) if this setting is not specified correctly:

"Conversion char data type to a datetime format resulted in an out of range datetime data type."

To correct this error, set your Regional Settings to "English (United States)." This setting cannot be changed as long as TimeForce is in use.
