How to set WPS to 24HR time display?
Somehow, I've forgotten how to get the clock in the WPS to confirm to
24HR display mode instead of the am/pm format. I've gone into the the
LOCALE object in the OS/2 SETUP folder. I've set it to the 24 hour
option. As far as I can tell eveything else on this MCP2 latest
everything Thinkpad is now 24HR display. But the WPS still displays the
12 hour am/pm format. I've looked at the properties in the WPS object
and so on, but can't recall how to get it to cooperate.
Any help?

In the Locale object folder, have you right clicked on your chosen
locale and set it as default? You need to... as well as selecting 24
hour.

Did as suggested, rebooted. Bingo! 24 hour time format on the WPS.
