Format of Date parameters?

Just found this handy program today and it does exactly what I need. One minor annoyance though. My reports in Crystal have a date parameter in the MM/DD/YYYY format but no matter what I try with Crystal Corral the parameter dialogue puts the dates in yyyy-mm-dd format. First shot is how it looks when I run the report in Crystal and the secon in CC.

Could it have to do with my CR version? I am using the demo version of CR 2008 but also have the fully licensed CR10 and reports created in either version show date parameters the same way.

meant to say that the first screen shot above is from Crystal Reports and the second is from Crystal Corral. Notice date format. I have other CR report viewers and this is the only one that uses a different date format and the calendar module seems to be older too. Is that just the design of CC? Thanks!

Crystal Corral uses the Crystal Reports .NET controls that are included with VB.NET. I did not create those interfaces and any settings are the defaults. I am in the process of upgrading to .NET 2008 so the included Crystal Reports controls may also be updated. I won't know until I perform the conversion.
