Default UK to US date format

I have a macro that reads;
- data from a form, and writes it to a central data sheet
- and another macro that can retrieve the data and present it on the
form again.

In both macros the date is set as "dd-mmm-yy" format. However I am
having a problem when there is a date such as
05-Jul-04. The 05 and the 07 of the day and month keep getting
transposed so the date turns into 07-May-04 (!!!).

Other dates (I guess ones where the day value is bigger than 12), seem
fine. The network and applications at my work are set to UK date
format, so why are these values changing over to US format?
