IN .NET, you can use the globalization/localization objects to format the
date however you want. In fact, you can get the proper format of the country
you are looking at and display it based on the user's culture. You simply
flip the culture to the proper culture for the database before you save and
flip to user's culture when you pull from the database. .NET makes this
really easy.
