Hi XModders
This is actually not directly linked to XMOD itself, it's more of a SQL issue, but I really hope you guys can help me anyways.
I'm using XMOD for a calendar based on full calendar for one of our customers, and so far it's been working flawlessly.
However, I've recently had to recreate the entire DNN installation from scratch, manually copying everything from the old installation to the new (please don't ask why).
Part of the transfer is the XMOD data, and everything seems to work correctly.. until I found a really horrible difference.
My old DB is based on the Collation Danish_Norwegian_Cl_AS.
My new DB is based on Collation
SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS
(I think it's the standard for a new DB in SQL Server)
I know it's a REALLY stupid thing to do, and a bad day to find out more than a month after transfers, but I guess I just have to deal with it.
Now to my problem. It seems the collation change also affects the datetime format in the DB - which includes sorting order and valid formats for datetime in forms, etc.
Does anyone know if it's possible to simply change the collation of a DB without causing a whole heap of bugs?
Would anyone know a nice and easy way to get around this collation and datetime format change? It's affecting other modules as well (but at least it's not affecting the DNN installation itself).
I've tried to add the format="dd-mm-yy" in my datepickers in XMOD, but I can't get it to work. When dates are fetched from DB, they're shown in standard american "mm/dd/yyyy H:MM:ss tt" which is what I think my DB will expect as datetime format now :(
