Format field in DMX query

Question

Hi
Does anyone know how to write a FORMAT DATE in DMX query ?
I have a date in USA format and I want to change it to UK format like “mm/dd/yyyy” to “dd/mm/yyyy”
and changing some dates to be full dates like 01/01/2015 not 1/1/2015
my query is:
SELECT
LAST_DATA_UPDATE,
now()
as NowDate
 FROM $System.MDSCHEMA_CUBES
where
cube_source = 1
Thank you
Yoni.

Hi Yoni ,
Hope the next code will be handy :
SELECT
format(LAST_DATA_UPDATE, 'dd/MM/yyyy') as Date1,
format(LAST_DATA_UPDATE, 'MM/dd/yyyy') as Date2 ,
now() as NowDate
FROM $System.MDSCHEMA_CUBES
where cube_source = 1
