Description 
The message ""Selecting filter xxxxx from previous ACP run at yyyyy" blows up on some European systems. The






CDate(buf), "yyyymmdd@HhNnSs") 







fails. The data stored in the registry as LastFilterUsedTime is not in a format that the conversion can digest. It is saved via








Util.Profile.WriteValue "LastFilterUsedTime", Util.SysUTCDate, "\"









Fix this so it is always compatible. Maybe use Locale?

  Prevent run start failures on some Windows Language/Locales from format clashes when reading and writing the date/time when the last filter was used.

Format the UTC date as all-numeric "yyyymmdd@HhNnSs" when writing out to Profile and just read the already formatted string back in.
