Hi,
It depends what date format your database has
nls_date_format, or which date format is assigned to your session.
BINTEST> alter session set nls_date_format = 'DD/MM/YYYY';
Session altered.
BINTEST> select sysdate from dual;
SYSDATE
----------
09/02/2001
The bottom line is the date is stored in oracle internally in a binary format, can be displayed in any format you want.
