Hello,
I have an access database and i have set the Format to 'Short' and i also set the Format of the control on the property window to SHORT (1_/26/1975). But when i insert a date into my access database using this control on my VB,net form, it appears as LONG (1/26/1970 3:41:54 PM) In the access database and this makes it impossible to retrieve information from my database using the date as a parameter

I believe that format is only for viewing. Underlying data is still date. There could be two ways you can do what you want, when you insert data, format it to short form and insert that value. Or when you retrieve data, have data formatted to Short form
