Formats preferences

Use the Formats Preferences screen to set the country default and the
display format of the dates, times, and numbers on your handheld
computer.

Country default

The country default sets date, time, week start day, and number
conventions based on geographic regions where you might use your
handheld computer. For example, in the United Kingdom, time often
is expressed using a 24-hour clock. In the United States, time is
expressed using a 12-hour clock with an AM or PM suffix.

All your handheld computer applications use the Country default
settings. You can, however, customize your own preferences. See the
“Time, date, week start, and numbers formats” section later in this
chapter.

1. Tap the country name pick list.

2. Tap the setting you want to use.
