Hi Neil,

I think the CultureInfo class should get what you want. you can access it using code such as:-

     $set ilusing"System.Globalization"

      program-id. Program1 as "CurrentCulture.Program1".

      data division.

      working-storage section.

      01  Cult        type CultureInfo.

      procedure division.

          set Cult to type CultureInfo::CurrentCulture

          display Cult::EnglishName

          display Cult::DateTimeFormat::FullDateTimePattern

          goback.

      end program Program1.

Regards

David
