troubleshooting Question
trying to set time format via .ADM template
asked on
Hi,
A client of ours is using software that requires the time format to be "hh:mm:ss" (so no ":tt").
It's windows server 2003 R2 environment, PCs running XP
I wanted to create a group policy that enforces this but from what i see there is no GPO for this.
I've tried implementing the following adm:
----- time.adm -----
class user
category "regional settings"
policy "Change time format"
keyname "control panel\international"
part "change to:" edittext
valuename "sTimeFormat"
default "HH:mm:ss"
end part
end policy
end category
----- time.adm -----
but it gives an error when i try to link it. The error is:
Error 51: Unexpected Keyword
Found:-
Expected: CLASS, CATEGORY,[strings]
when checking the registry, the reg key shows as sTimeFormat,
and it's stored at HKCU\Control Panel\International.
I couldn't find an example of exactly what I was looking for online,
so what I've written here is based on a similar script for setting date format.
Would anybody know the correct script for this?
Thanks
