Probably no way to set default in office 2000.

You can apply format to cells by defining custom format of "dd/mm/yyyy"

Is there a way to configure Excel (Office 2000) to always display dates in
Euro format instead of US? It currently accepts entries in Euro format
(dd/mm/yy) but always displays them in sheets in US format (mm/dd/yy), which
is kinda confusing. I can't see a configure option covering this - am I
missing something?
