[dfPeriod setDateFormat:REPORT_PERIOD1];

m_dpReportFromDate=[[UIDatePicker alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(25, 55, 300, 200)];

m_dpReportFromDate.datePickerMode=UIDatePickerModeDate;

if(m_strFromDate.length>0)

m_dpReportFromDate.date=[dfPeriod dateFromString:m_strFromDate];

[self.view addSubview:m_dpReportFromDate];

You should avoid using the "setDateFormat:" method ("dateFormat" property) for localized date display. See the documentation:

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/nsdateformatter/1413514-dateformat

which says:

"You should only set this property when working with fixed format representations, as discussed in Working With Fixed Format Date Representations. For user-visible representations, you should use the dateStyle and timeStyle properties, or the setLocalizedDateFormatFromTemplate: method if your desired format cannot be achieved using the predefined styles; both of these properties and this method provide a localized date representation appropriate for display to the user."
