The regional settings (date/time format) being defined in the "Regional Option" section are associated to the project's native language (the language used by the programmer in the original project). Since it is possible to add other languages to the project (localization), you can define a different regional setting for each project language. To do so, click and select a format among the available options. See To Associate a Regional Setting to a Project Language.
