        <pre>I beg to differ.
Whilst you are right that ISO standard is full year, that is not the point.

The point is that I define in the Options that Y-M-D is a valid input format.
and that is recognized as text, not as a date when I do type it 18-3-13, whilst
I can type 13/3/18 and it does convert it to date. as the example shows.

why wound 18-3-13 be ambiguous if 13/3/18 is not?

Further, I downloaded Xavier's file and got the same result as before. How
come? Please explain and then I will go away.</pre>
