Date of my database is in american how can i change it that when i type in
1-6-05 it will give me 1-June-05 not 6-Jan-05
 
Open the Windows Control Panel | Regional Options, and set the date format
there. Access will then interpret what you type into the user interface
(forms, query design), according to your local format.

For more detail on avoiding the 3 cases where Access can misunderstand your
dates, see:
