Hi Eric, 

I think the issue is that the internal date number is stored in the user field
instead of the real date value i.e. if you input 11.02.07 (MMDDYY) the value
stored is 39388.
Tested on OOoDev300_m26FR and Ubuntu 8.4

Steps to simply reproduce: 
Ctrl+F2, variables tab, select User Field
Name it UF1 value  11.02.07
Format as date MMMM J AAAA
Click on the green mark to validate the format
Insert the field --> date is correctly inserted and formatted

Without closing the dialog
Click on Input field, UF1 is selected under Selection area
Click on Insert
The "internal" date number is shown : 39388
Click ok without changing anything --> this number 39388 is inserted

Click again on Input Field and enter a value as a date formatted MMDDYY
Both Input Fields will have the date you just enter, but formatted as you enter
them.
The User Field will now display December 30 1899

I let it as unconfirmed because I'm not sure that it's not another issue than
the one described here. For me it's the same because of the original storage of
the date number, but I may be wrong :)
Kind regards - Sophie
