Get Local Date Format (Updated)

Updated to incorporate a VB 6 split function emulator for VB5 users. Also changed date format to lower case for compatibility with controls that don't like upper case date formats. This routine will return the Date format for the locale the app is running in. This way you can format your dates to display in the preferred format of the area the app is being used. (eg. mm/dd/yyyy in the U.S., dd/mm/yyyy in England, dd.mm.yyyy in Germany, etc).
