Can anyone tell me why when you set an appointment time in gpe calendar it is set by 12 hour clock but everything else in the program displays as the 24 hour clock? I hate 24 hour clock , is there any way to make gpe calendar use the 12 hour format throughout the program??

I don't know a way to get 12 times but consider that a 12 hr time takes more characters to display the time which can be an issue with some views. I'll admit to being a vetran and very accustomed to the 24 hr time designation.

24hr time doesn't bother me (I was in the army and got rather used to it), but I do prefer the simplicity of 12hr time, especially since 99% of things I work with these days use it.

I agree with you there. Concidering how many people can't make change converting 24hr to 12 may be beyond them let alone having to understand zulu time like many vets do.

lol. Thankfully they were phasing out Zulu time when I was in. Or at the very least they weren't using for much of anything anymore. I think I only ever saw a couple of "official" docs that required it. Otherwise we never used it.

While I have the utmost respect for veterans, no one seems to have responded to the initial question.

Is there any way to switch the GPE calendar from a 24 hour military style to a 12 hour civilian style?

Not that I've found.
