The first zero is passed as the FirstDayOfWeek arguement of the Format
function, which means the format function will use the system setting
(regional settings, I suppose), to determine what is the first day of
week. On my setup, that would be Monday, while in the US, I suppose it
would be Sunday. Sunday is default for this function, if nothing is
specified for this arguement.
The second zero is passed as the FirstWeekOfYear arguement of the
Format function, which means the Format function will sue the system
setting (regional settings, I suppose), to determine what is the first
week of the year. Start with week in which January 1 occurs, is the
default, if nothing is specified for this arguement.
To find out more about such, hit ctrl+g to to get the immediate pane,
type the function name, then hit F1 while the cursor is within the
name of the function.
