Description MG 2004-05-25 06:12:34 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.0)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

Just a teeny tiny buglet guys.  
When changing the time format in control center. I inadvertantly typed the following format:
PHH:MM:SS AMPM, this was accepted in Control Center, I didn't notice it at the time. 
However, later  KOrganizer would not allow scheduling (and rightly so) because of this invalid format. 
The format should have been PH:MM:SS AMPM. Maybe some validation needs to be added to control center 
to prevent typos like the above.

The output of the time format you set is shown in that dialog, which helps this.
Comment 2 John Layt 2010-08-07 17:43:59 UTC
Still a problem in 4.5, assign to me to fix in new kcm.
Comment 3 Justin Zobel 2020-11-26 22:52:46 UTC
It appears custom date/time formats are no longer accepted in the formats section.

Can you please test and confirm if this issue is still occurring or if this bug report can be marked as resolved. I've set the bug status to "needsinfo" pending your response, please change back to "reported" or "resolved" when you respond, thanks.
