Problem with Date Format

[IlseH]

The dates in my database are stored as "mdy". When displaying the dates in Crystal Reports 8, the dates are mixed up.
Say I have two dates:
date1 is stored as 08/23/2001, date2 is stored as 10/03/2001.
When displaying the dates i get 23/08/2001 and 10/03/2001 where it should be 08/23/2001 and 10/03/2001 or 23/08/2001 and 03/10/2001.
How can I solve this?

Set the display format for each field that way
you want to see it.

Maybe I didn't express myself well enough. The dates I gave as an example come from the same field in the database, but from different records. Changing the display format does not solve my problem.
I even think the problem is related to my ODBC-connection. I work on a Progress 9.1B database and use "MERANT 3.60 32-BIT Progress SQL92 v9.1B" as ODBC-driver.
