Date format using custom column

I know there was already a post some time ago, either explaining how or explaining why not, but I haven't been able to find it.

Because of other issues, I have to update only the title page when a fiction is completed (to get the accurate word and page count from the plugin), and in doing so it changes the Packaged (created) date, which I don't want, meaning I have to then modify that field.

I've been able to replace the current 'dateCreated' field with the date in my custom '#packaged' column, but the formatting for the date shows up wrong, no matter what changes I try in the personal.ini file. I would prefer it to be formatted in the same manner as the other entries (datePublished and dateUpdated), which I have as %%B %%d, %%Y.
