SUMMARY
When you copy a date from Microsoft Project and paste it in another application, it will be pasted with the date format that is set in the dialog box found on the View tab. (To locate the View tab, click Options on the Tools menu.) If you have set a different date format for tables in the Table Definition dialog box, this format will be overwitten by the format specified in the Options dialog box.



MORE INFORMATION
In the Options dialog box, the Date Format field controls the way dates are displayed. However, you can also edit a table and control the date format of the selected table. In Microsoft Project, this table-specific setting can be ovewritten by the setting in the options dialog box.
