Thanks for the help. I was hoping for setting change that would resolve the issue but we'll have to use the workaround suggested by spangdelta.

I would like to change the default format of a parameter field that is a date type. The default format is yyyy-mm-dd. I would like to change it to mm-dd-yyyy. I changed the default date format of the report and it had no effect. Seems like this should be easy but I can't figure it out.

Crystal Reports parameter field date format

Crystal Reports is a business intelligence application from SAP SE. It is used to graphically design data connections and report layouts from a wide range of data sources including Excel spreadsheets, Oracle, SQL Server databases and Access databases, BusinessObjects Enterprise business views, and local file-system information. Report designers can place fields from these sources on the report design surface, and can also deploy them in custom formulas (using either BASIC or Crystal's own syntax), which are then placed on the design surface. Crystal Reports also supports subreports, graphing, and a limited amount of GIS functionality.
