vb6 question

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

Is there any way to make the following date functions:
Format
CDATE
DateAdd
DatePart
Month
Day
....etc...

system date independent?

For instance, in Visual Fox Pro you could set the application date format to
a specific format, independent from the system date (regional settings).

As far as I know, VB6 only permits to change the fist day of the week and
first week of the year, but not the aplication date format.

any ideas? suggestions? links? whatever?

btw: changing the system date format from any api in the vb6 application is
out of the question.


Thank you.
