Date Format in Forms

I have a form that includes "Date of Birth". I formated that box to be a "Date" 07/07/57.  The problem is when you type your date of birth and tab on to next box the "Date" box shows 01/01/57 instead of 07/07/57.  No matter what date I put it comes back with 01/01.  Why is this happening? How can I correct this?

The entry for a date formatted as "m/d/yy" is "7/7/57", not "07/07/57", but it shouldn't be doing that.  It should be correcting to "7/7/57".   Can you share the form?


Thank you for your response.  I've decided to not use the date feature for now.  Need to get the form done. Thanks for your help.

How exactly did you format the field? What did you enter or select?

OK, and how are you entering the value? Manually, using the calendar widget, or with a script?

Also, in which application are you doing it?
