I always use :

OCONV(DATE(),'DDMY,A,Z4')

In data that is going to a spreadsheet, it means Excel knows it is a date and 
stops Excel changing the format to American (we are
based in the U.K.).

Hi experts..

I have one problem in creatin a spreadsheet report with date format. One of the 
column in the spreadsheet is a date and it is
displaying as numbers. Please help me in printing it as a date. 

BTW I'm using OCONV to write the value to the column. 

TIA,
Sathya V.
