The TIME category

The TIME category lists characters and symbols that format date and time values.

This information includes the names and abbreviations for days of the week and months of the year. It also includes special representations for dates, time (12-hour and 24-hour), and DATETIME values.

This date and time information applies to the display formats of data in DATE and DATETIME columns within a client application.
Important: Information in the TIME category does not affect the internal format of the DATE and DATETIME data types in the database.
