Both Cell and Group format preferences can be set for time/date values (for columns that display time and date). The format options available for a column that displays Time/Date are the same for both cells and groups and are available within the 'Date' tab in the format dialogs.
The dialog above shows an example of a 'Cell Format' dialog for a Time/Date-type column.
The default settings are determined by your 'Regional' options within Windows.
