Change date format on report

[SITCFanTN]

My date displays as mddyy in the table but on the report I'd like it to
display as mm/dd/yyyy, how would I code that to have that field always
display in mm/dd/yyyy format. I'm thinking this is very simple but I just
can't get it to work for me.

Thank so much for your help.

I think that if you go to the field in the design view, double click
on it a box will pop up that brings up different things that you can
do with the specific text box. click on the "Format" tab and choose
"Short Date". I assume that you're using 2003...
