The script however, is embedded and called from within FMP. This would mean changing everyone's International prefs. Fortunately, (and somehow psychically) you also provided an alternate solution.

Here's an improvement upon my alternate solution, one that is not year dependent:


set s to date "Friday, October 22, 2004 12:00:00 AM"
set sd to short date string of s
set text item delimiters to "/"
set temp to text items of sd
set last item of temp to "20" & last item of temp
set sd to temp as text

Of course, it has a Y21K problem, but that can be fixed in 96 years or so.
