SYMPTOMS
========

If the colon (:) separator in the International - Time Format dialog box is
removed, File Manager truncates the minutes and seconds of the file date.

MORE INFORMATION
================

If the separator is enabled, the File Manager time stamp has a reading such as
"9:14:55 AM." If the separator is disabled, the File Manager time stamp has a
reading such as "9." File Manager does not round the time to the nearest hour;
for example, "9:59:59" becomes "9" when the separator is disabled.

Additional query words: 3.10 3.11 3.00 3.00a
