Default How do I change the US date setting in the event schedule planner

If this is Word 2007/2010 then the chances are that it uses date content
controls to display the dates. You can change them all with a macro

Sub Macro1()
Dim oCC As ContentControl
For Each oCC In ActiveDocument.ContentControls
If oCC.Type = wdContentControlDate Then
oCC.DateDisplayLocale = wdEnglishUK
oCC.DateDisplayFormat = "dd.MM.yyyy"
End If
Next oCC
End Sub
