One method is to create a query in Access 2K using the query
builder to format a new column with the time / date format
that you want. For instance, this is from the SQL view of a
query named qryAccess2k:

SELECT [table].[Date], Format([table].[date],"mm-dd-yyyy") AS
formatted
FROM table

Then from your script, substitute the table name with the
query / view name:

SELECT Date, formatted
FROM qryAccess2k

Note that if you are sorting, sort on the table.Date field
and not the formatted field since the formatted field will
return a straight alphabetic sort order.
