Yes, you need to provide a sufficient information about what you want
to do. It seems that you used it where expression was not expected.
If you want it as a label in a button of a bar where an expression
cannot be used directly, for example, you have to use instead:
*info d MM yy
or
*info expr(formatdate("d MMM yy",date))
Of course the first one is preferable.
