Screenshot of report output showing poorly formatted dates

I build a query to my database which includes dates and other information in
each row.

I use the report wizard to build a report from that query and the dates are
formatted wrong.

Query Date      Report Date
07/01/94        34516
09/01/97        35674
11/01/98        36100
12/01/08        39783
12/01/09        40148

Note that the difference between "Report Date" values for 12/01/08 and 12/01/09
(40148 - 39783) is EXACTLY 365 (days) and the difference between "Report Date"
values for 11/01/98 and 12/01/09 (40148 - 36100) is 4048 (days).  Both
differences are EXACTLY the correct number of days.  So it seems obvious that
the formatting is wonky -- its showing the number of days since about 1900,
instead of a "date"
