Access stores the dates as a numeric value, with no format.

The format is applied at display time, depending on the Regional Settings of
the user. Set the correct settings in the Windows Control Panel, under
Regional Options, and Access will display the date in that format.

In that case, the date is stored incorrectly (unless the Format property is
set in the text box or in the field properties in table design.)
