When I move cursor to the date on the left hand side and then click
"format", then "cell", the "general" under "category" was highlighted.

When I move cursor to the date on the right hand side, and then click
"format", then "cell", the "date" under "category" was highlighted.

I try to change the format in that column by clicking "format" and then
"cell", I can't make the right hand side date coincide with the left hand
side date. It seems that the right hand side date is "mm/dd/yy" whereas the
left hand side is "dd/mm/yy".

Questions:

1. Why they have different format after the installation?
2. How do i make them have the same format.

Thank you very much.
