i got solution for this problem.

when we need to change the format of a date field or number field or string field, we can use the parameters.

Do the following to format the date field.

1. create a parameter that accepts number values.

2. Right click on your date field and choose format field.

3. go to the datetime tab and click on the formula section for "Order".

4. insert your parameter here and save.

5. now the selected date field is formated as per the given format

6. 0 - YMD; 1-DMY; 2-MDY. these are the numbers can be given by the parameter from your application.
