No you haven't. The only relevant setting in your attached .emacs is one
for calendar-date-display-form. This just affects how dates are
*displayed*, nothing else. There are other things you need to set,
notably diary-date-forms. But don't bother setting either of those by
hand, just customize calendar-date-style to `iso' instead. That will set
all the necessary variables.

I have configured my .emacs file to use ISO dates format, but when I check for
diary entries (throw 'd' option of calendar) I get "No diary entries for
<date>". I attach my .emacs file and a sample diary file. Inserting new entries
in the diary file to the calendar ('i d' option) writes the data in the correct
format (ISO), so I guess that must be a problem in the diary
interpretation by the
calendar.
