[AccessD] International date format problem

Dear List:
 
I have the following line which works fine here with mm/dd/yyyy but does not
work for my client in Mexico where the date format is dd/mm/yyyy:
 
    rstSupply.FindFirst "OrderNumber = '" & Me.txtPONumber & " - " &
rstPODetail!fldPODLineNumber _
        & "' AND DueDate = #" _
        & rstPODetail!fldPODDateRequired & "# AND PartNumber = '" _
        & rstPODetail!fldPODPartNumber & "'"

 
where fldPODDateRequired is Date/Time data type.  This is A2K3 BTW.  When
date format is set in Windows to dd/mm/yyyy rstSupply.NoMatch=True, when
date format is mm/dd/yyyy rstSupply.NoMatch = false (finds the record)
 
I think I may have this problem in other places in the code.  Is there a
general method to avoid this problem?
