Hello Hans,
I'm not sure - did you mean it this way?
It's working but it's a bit ugly... isn't there any macro providing the raw month number directly (something like \v!monthnumber)?
-Richard
P.S. I also cannot get rid of the spaces before the numbers. I guess there should be no spaces in Chinese; see how Xiao wrote the date: "2005年12月22日" ... Currently, \currentdate gives: "2005年 12月 22日".
