When I try and set the Short Time Format like this:

FormatSettings.ShortTimeFormat := 'HH:mm';

It throws an error in V1.04 Build 1

This worked fine in V1.03, has the format changed for this build or is
this a bug?

I'd want to do a diff on the source - checking back this used to be an
issue, so I wonder if it has regressed.

Tim has emailed me and it is a "feature" - he will have a fix out soon.

Was there a workaround for this?

Or did you revert back to V 1.03 B7

Tim sent me a work around but I just changed the short time to be
HH:mm:ss and that worked.

Hi Walter,

Here is the work around that Tim sent me:

I'll have a fix for this out shortly, but for now just use this code:

function TFormatSettings.ParseShortTime(const Value: String;
                                        Format: Boolean=False):
TStringsArray;
var
   I: Integer;
begin
   SetLength(Result,4);
   if Format then  <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<  Add these if/else blocks
      begin
      Result[0]:='';
      Result[1]:='';
      Result[2]:='';
      Result[3]:='';
      end
   else
      begin
      Result[0]:='0';
      Result[1]:='0';
      Result[2]:='0';
      Result[3]:='0';
      end;

and also:

function TFormatSettings.ParseShortDate(const Value: String;
                                        Format: Boolean=False):
TStringsArray;
var
   I: Integer;
begin
   SetLength(Result,3);
   if Format then  <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<  Same thing, add these if/else blocks
      begin
      Result[0]:='';
      Result[1]:='';
      Result[2]:='';
      end
   else
      begin
      Result[0]:='0';
      Result[1]:='0';
      Result[2]:='0';
      end;
