3323.0. "Swedish weekday bug..." by EMIL::KANDER (Put the message in a box!) Mon Sep 10 1990 08:15

    
    	Hi,
    
    	I noticed that the weekdays are shifted one day if you select
    	Swedish as session language. Eg. Today is Monday and if I start
    	a clock I tells me that it's tuesday (Tis, in Swedish) already.
    	A wild guess about how this has happend is that we use to start
    	our calendar weeks on a Monday, not on a Sunday as (I believe)
    	you do in the states...
    
    	Now, what can I do to get my weekdays correct and, should this 
    	be reported?
    
    	Ola

    I assume that you saw this problem with a field test version of 
    VMS 5.4. Yes, there was a bug with the Swedish days of the week
    being offset by one day. It was fixed in later versions of the
    5.4 field test. 
    
    See QAR 573 in the V54-FT database for details.
