    Hi and welcome, simply change SourceExpr of related textbox in section designer (no need to change regional settings):
    FORMAT("Document Date",0,'<Day,2>/<Month,2>/<Year4>')

    For FormatStr usage please take a look at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd301367.aspx

    Hi,

    Thx for you're message!

    Unfortunately i doesn't work i set ("Document Date",0,'<Day,2>/<Month,2>/<Year4>') as format to the object
    But the date is still dd. mm yyyy i want dd-mm-yy or dd-mm-yy i don't know what is wrong.

    I work with NAV 2013 by the way.

    Sorry, I thought you were working with NAV 2009: so there will be a column in dataset designer called "DocDate_SalesHeader": change the data source from FORMAT("Sales Header"."Document Date",0,4) to FORMAT("Sales Header"."Document Date",0,'<Day,2>/<Month,2>/<Year4>') and should work.

    Hi Geordie,

    See the image DocumentDateCaptionLbl is the item that went wrong do i need to change the format in Visual Studio or in Report Dataset Designer?
    Sorry i'm an starter with Dynamics NAV :)

    Thanks!

    DocumentDateCaptionLbl is the control providing the label of document date (orange box), you have to operate on DocDate_SalesHeader changing data source in NAV in order to customize the data format (red box).
    I attached a comparison between original report version and new one, hope it helps.
