title: CompareValidator for "dd/mm/yyyy" format
body: <p>I am enhancing our existing web application that will be used on EMEA where I need to change the date format from "mm/dd/yyyy" to "dd/mm/yyyy" at runtime based on the user's global region.</p>
  
  <p>My problem is that my required validation is not accepting the "dd/mm/yyyy" format.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;asp:CompareValidator ID="cvDateReportCompleted" runat="server" ErrorMessage="Report Date is not in correct format" ControlToValidate="txtDateReportCompleted" Operator="DataTypeCheck" Type="Date" ValidationGroup="vgMain" Display="None"&gt;&lt;/asp:CompareValidator&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Can anyone provide the details to deal with this problem that <code>asp:CompareValidator</code> will accept either "mm/dd/yyyy" or "dd/mm/yyyy"?</p>
