Default Date format issue

Hi all

I posted a variation on this request a couple of days back, but no-one seems
able (or willing) to solve my problem. Thsi issue is this:

I need to have the option of entering a date into a form either manually, or
from a command button. I then need that date to be transferred to a
worksheet cell. I then need to be able to compare other cells with that date
to determine if the other dates have passed.

I'm currently using a textbox on the form, but this shows the date as
mm/dd/yyyy instead of the required dd/mm/yyyy. The date on the sheet is
fine.
If I use Format(date, "dd/mm/yyyy)) to correctly display the date on the
form, the transferred date is then in text format and can no longer be
compared to on the sheet.

Any ideas how I can get round this?
