If you want to change the Date Format for a Specific User on specific page then you can also do this through People Coding.

You can also play with the below code with the help of %oprid, like if %oprid then the below code or w.r.t roles through "IsUserInRole" function.

There is one built-in function "DateTimeToLocalizedString". You can use this if you want to change the date format through people code for your PIA pages.

How to use:

Example 1:
&String = DateTimeToLocalizedString(&Date, "M/d/y");
/* if you are picking the date from any record field and using &Date for that field */

Example 2:
&String = DateTimeToLocalizedString(%Date, "M/d/y");
/* if you want to pick the system date and want to use it on your page with different formats. */

-- Assign this String variable (&String) to your desired field.

Note: Here 'd' for date and 'y' for year both must be in smaller letters only. And, 'M' for months should be in Caps.
