Default How to change the default format of the date in header?

Hi Ben,

If this is a date that automatically updates, then it's been created with a date field. In that case:
.. select the date
.. press Shift-F9 to reveal the field code, which will look something like {DATE} or {DATE \@ "MM, dd yyyy"}
.. add/edit the date switch to give the format you require, eg {DATE \@ "dddd, d MMMM yyyy"}

Cheers
