Default Shortcut Date entry problem

In the past by using ctrl+; I have been able to, using formatted cells show
e.go. 14 Mar. All of a sudden I cannot. What I get is 14-03-2007.

My short date is set in Regional Settings as dMMMyy.

Vista Business and Excel 2007.

TIA

Sorry it doesn't work. The problem appears to have started in the keyboard
shortcut Ctrl + ; The regional settings are correct but while the date is
proper there the formatting in Excel doesn't work.
