The Date literal must be enclosed within number signs ( #date# ) and specify the date value in the format M/d/yyyy like #09/06/2014# .

With this requirement the meaning of your code should never change whether if it has a different date and time format settings. For example, you hard-coded a Date literal of #9/6/2014# which means September 6, 2014. That will compile 9/6/2014 as you want mm/dd/yyyy. However, if you deploy application in several locales using dd/mm/yyyy date format, your hard-coded literal would compile to June 9, 2014. For other locales using yyyy/mm/dd, the literal would be invalid causing compilation error. To convert a Date literal to the format of your locale or to a custom format, use the Format function of String class, specifying either a predefined or user-defined date format.
