Date Formats in Oracle 8.x

Hi - we are porting an app from DB2/400 to Oracle. When binding dates to
strings in the code dates come back mm-dd-yy. Is there a way in Oracle to
tell the DB to return dates in the same format so that we can avoid changing
code. The default in oracle appears to be the entire timestamp which overfows
our GUI fields.



Thx
