title: iPhone:DatePicker dd/mm/yyyy
body: <p>I am using a DatePicker with popups when a user click a textField. However, the Picker displays Month first, not date first and it isn't British way to write a date.
  Is there any way to set the date format in DatePicker to British way such as dd/mm/yyyy?
  I am using an Achtionsheet:</p>
  
  <pre><code>-(IBAction)acsheet:(id)sender
  {
  
      actionSheet = [[UIActionSheet alloc] initWithTitle:nil 
                                                delegate:nil
                                       cancelButtonTitle:nil
                                  destructiveButtonTitle:nil
                                       otherButtonTitles:nil];
      [actionSheet setActionSheetStyle:UIActionSheetStyleBlackTranslucent];
  
      //CGRect pickerFrame = CGRectMake(0, 45, 0, 0);
      pickerView1 = [[UIDatePicker alloc] init];
      pickerView1.datePickerMode = UIDatePickerModeDate;  
  
      [actionSheet addSubview:pickerView1];
  
      UISegmentedControl *closeButton = [[UISegmentedControl alloc] initWithItems:[NSArray arrayWithObject:@"Close"]];
      closeButton.momentary = YES; 
      closeButton.frame = CGRectMake(260, 7.0f, 50.0f, 30.0f);
      closeButton.segmentedControlStyle = UISegmentedControlStyleBar;
      closeButton.tintColor = [UIColor blackColor];
      [closeButton addTarget:self action:@selector(dismissActionSheet:)                    
                        forControlEvents:UIControlEventValueChanged];
      [actionSheet addSubview:closeButton];
      [actionSheet showInView:[[UIApplication sharedApplication] keyWindow]];    
      [actionSheet setBounds:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 485)];
  
      [pickerView1 addTarget:self
                      action:@selector(updateLabel:)
            forControlEvents:UIControlEventValueChanged]; 
  
      UIBarButtonItem *spacer = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFlexibleSpace target:nil action:nil];
      UIBarButtonItem *doneButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemDone target:self  action:@selector(dismissDatePicker:)] ;
      UIToolbar *toolBar = [[UIToolbar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, self.view.bounds.size.height, 320, 44)];
      toolBar.tag = 11;
      toolBar.barStyle = UIBarStyleBlackTranslucent;
  
      [toolBar setItems:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:spacer, doneButton, nil]];
      [self.view addSubview:toolBar];
  
  }
  </code></pre>
