Default Check how date is entered

So docs done on pre-Vista systems would still show correct dates when
opened in the later OSs because regardless of how the system format
displays, the DateSerial dictates the actual date value!


That's ok for stuff already _in_ MS product; what about the question of
importing data from external systems that may have different encoding
between them? Looks like that's broken to me...
