Example.  In the U.S. 03-09-06 (Month-Day-Year).  I would like for the date
to change with use in whatever country the software is in, such as Finland,
U.K. or even China.  I keep playing with System.DateTime and can not find a
way to do this.  I would appreciate any help.

Wolf,

    What are you trying to do with the date?  Note that the date is not
stored in a format that corresponds to the current locale, it is the
^representation^ of the date that changes.
