In my experience, all I have to do is have the users set their server profile to that country's settings and that will dynamically change these formats. At least for the date time pickers. Not sure about reports. I have the exact same scenario where we have terminal servers all over the world with GP, specifically for a UK, Japan and Australia install, and just the other day, I showed one of the Japan users how to change the regional settings on their terminal services profile and next then re-launched GP the date formats he was expecting had been correctly changed to the way he wanted to see it. For the UK, we put then on a new application server once, it was installed and configured for US formats, the users brought the date issue to our attention, then we just had then go into Regional settings and add en-GB under their profile. On my profile, I can toggle between the 2 with the language bar. Again, that is just the date time pickers, you may be talking about GP reports and I guess that might have to do with the install language you picked. Obviously Ian has firsthand knowledge of this, but this was just my experience. I also have been dealing with SSRS reports and date formatting recently and one trick is that for the Report Language, I always pick "=User!Language" and use the dynamic formats and I get to see the reports in my date format and the UK users see that same report in their format.
