has there any work around on this problem already wherein clientdataset
cannot convert dd-mmm-yy to correct format?
 

here's a sample code:
ShortDateFormat := 'dd/mm/yy';
dm.cdsUser.FieldByName('LastLogin').AsDateTime := date;
if dm.cdsUser.Modified then
begin
dm.cdsUser.Post;
dm.cdsUser.ApplyUpdates(-1);
end;
the error will occur if you changed your Date setting on Regional Options of
Control panel to 'dd-mmm-yy'. Still an error 'invalid date' will occur on
appying the update on the clientdataset even if I tried to use
ShortDateFormat. The date doesn't really change to shortdateformat
'dd/mm/yy/ ' but would remain as 'dd-mmm-yy'.
I even have a function to change 'dd-mmm-yy' to 'dd-mm-yy', still same
error.
