Hi guys

Thanks for the quick answer.

I'm afraid I have opened a bag of worms, because I'm certainly not an
locale-eagle ;-) and I'll have to do some studying.

The command 'locale -a' gives:

bent yosie ~ $ locale -a
C
en_DK.utf8
en_US.utf8
POSIX
bent yosie ~ $

so I guess I'm using the C locale. What I want is an English speaking
machine which uses Danish date and currency formats.

It would probably be easier if I chose a Danish speaking machine as
well, but I have used English as a working language on PC since I
worked in California for a couple of years many years back. I also
find that many translations to Danish  suck because not many Danes
know their own language these days. Well, the latter is complete off
topic. Sorry about that.
