Default Column Date Format

Problem Description: Something has happened to my ability to change the date
format in Excel 2003 Professional. Previously to this incident I could type
in 03/17/09, then change the format of the cell in the ("format cells) dialog
box to "format cells" to 03-Mar-09 in the dropdown and it would appear as
03-Mar-09.
Also if I type a date in the column NOW and click on Format Cells select
date when I click the various formats that are available, the "sample" in
the dialog box does not change.
Apparently the ability to change the date format is gone, but I have no idea
why.
I've tried using the disc to perform an Office Repair - No Help
I've unzipped the file (Excel)from the disc to run excel as a new program -
No Help
