On this article http://allenbrowne.com/ser-36.html#Interface I've found this module:
Can I determine which Language is set in Standards and Format option of Control Panel?
Thank You
Code:
'------------------------------------------
' basIntlFormats
'
' Some helper functions for handling date/time/currency
' formats for locales other than the current regional
' settings will handle. Since VB relies on the control
' panel, this is the only way to accomplish this.
'
' You may use this code in your projects, but a note on who
' you got it from would be appreciated. :-)
'
' Version of this module is 2.1.
'
' HISTORY:
' 1.0 5/5/98 Added date/time enum info
' 1.1 12/1/98 Used Get[Time|Date]Format instead of VB's Format function
' 1.2 5/5/99 Added currency formatting support
' 1.3 10/1/99 Added locale validation code
' 2.0 10/1/99 Added NT5 constants
' 2.1 10/1/99 Added comments on the validation code
