1 Way:

#Include <Misc.au3>
#include <GUIConstants.au3>
GUICreate( "Get date", 210,190)
$Date = GUICtrlCreateMonthCal ("",10, 10)
GUISetState()
While 1
Sleep ( 50 )
If _IsPressed("01") Then
Run ('notepad.exe')
WinWaitActive ("Untitled - Notepad")
$date = GUICtrlRead($Date)
$date = StringMid($date, 6, 3) & StringRight($date, 2) & "/" & StringLeft($date, 4)
Send ($Date);RIGHT HERE I WANT TO SEND THE DATE IN MM/DD/YYYY format but it sends in YYYY/MM/DD forma, but don't know how :nuke:
ExitLoop
EndIf
WEnd

If your PC have that format just use:

#include <Misc.au3>
#include <GUIConstants.au3>
#include <Date.au3>
GUICreate("Get date", 210, 190)
$Date = GUICtrlCreateMonthCal("", 10, 10)
GUISetState()
While 1
    Sleep(50)
    If _IsPressed("01") Then
        Run('notepad.exe')
        WinWaitActive("Untitled - Notepad")
        $Date = GUICtrlRead($Date)
        ; Current date/time in the pc's format
        Send(_DateTimeFormat($Date, 2));RIGHT HERE I WANT TO SEND THE DATE IN MM/DD/YYYY format but it sends in YYYY/MM/DD forma, but don't know how :nuke:
        ExitLoop
    EndIf

WEnd

Thanks a lot buddy your first suggestion is GOOD. I said first one good cause in the first 1 i did not have to change anything and it send the date in MM/DD/YYYY format, the second one was gooooood also but in the second if i click the date less than 10 it don't display the leading zero before one digit (DD). Any way thanks a lot man. Right now it is almost 11:30 PM, in morning i will try to understand the syntax which you used to accomplish this task.
