I like my default date format to be MM/DD/YY.

I run a routine from a button within a form that prints a form letter.  Prior 
to the command that prints the letter I enter a line SET DATE 'MMM+ DD, YYYY'

The letter prints fine, such as June 07, 2008.

After the letter is printed, I <F8> to the next record.  The date format 
remains 'MMM+ DD, YYYY'  even though I have entered SET DATE MM/DD/YY 
everywhere I can think of to enter it. This includes all the obvious places:  
in the oonrrol file itself, in the AFTER REPORT GENERATED, to the ON CLOSE from 
the form--no matter what I do the next record <F8> displays dates as MMM+ DD, 
YYYY.

My command SET DATE MM/DD/YY is being ignored.  I simply want to restore my 
date format to my chosen default format.  What gives?

Thanks,
Fred
