Answer 1

First go to your control panel , select Date , time and Number Format . Now select English(United Kingdom) from the drop down list.

Make sure the shor date field is equal to 'dd/mm/yyyy'. Press Apply. Now go to SSRS and right click on the report in the empty space and select properties.

If you are using visual studio then set Language property equal to =User!Language.

If you are using Report Builder then Language property will appear in Localization section.
