No, this is the default ORACLE format for retrieved dates.

No, but modifying the query to use a date format is actually the best solution.  This 
would give you something like:

    SELECT TO_CHAR(DATE, 'DD-MON-YY HH:MI:SS') AS DATE_TIME FROM TBL

Look up the definition of the TO_CHAR function for the full list of format elements 
available for formatting DATEs.

Cheers!
