Get the month from vbld_FormatDateEx

[mptorney]

I'm in the UK, so my date format has the day first, so today (Feb 1st) is written as 01/02/2012. When I use vbld_FormatDateEx to get the month back, I don't get the correct result. For example, if

COMMITDATE = 01/02/2012 16:29:42

and I call [vbld_FormatDateEx("%COMMITDATE%", "mm")]

the result is 01, not 02. I though I could get around this by using "dd", which returns the correct result for the first 12 days of the month (while there is an ambiguity, I guess), and the actual day for the rest of the month.

Am I missing something? Can I force the date format that's used? Or should I just parse COMMITDATE myself?
