We have to assume that you are using JDBC/ODBC resp. SQLStudio (implicit usage of 
ODBC).
Because of the ODBC-definition, all of these use ISO-format and do not take care
for the DATE_TIME_FORMAT given during installation (or switched afterwards).

If you need other formats for output, use function CHAR (internal mode) resp.
TO_CHAR (Oracle mode)
