    This won't change the SQL Server default but you can accomplish the formatting in your select statement.

       SELECT CONVERT(varchar,<your date field>,103) AS <your date field>
       FROM <your table>

    The 103 tells SQL Server to format the output to dd/mm/yyyy. There are a number of formatting options you can use. Look in SQL Server Books Online for the CONVERT function.
