Excel lets you specify various date formats in AppleScript (basically, using
the format strings you can find in Format/Cells/Custom). But it doesn't let
you set localization -  that's built into your version of Excel. As are the
various date and time formats which it will "interpret" as dates and times.
You can't control those, via AppleScript or the UI.
