Exporting in record mode will ignore FORMAT unless you CAST as (VAR)CHAR also:

SELECT WHS_RPT_EFF_DT (CHAR(10), FORMAT 'MM-DD-YYYY')
SELECT CAST(WHS_RPT_EFF_DT AS CHAR(10) FORMAT 'MM-DD-YYYY')

Note also that DATE is a special case. Otherwise you may need two CASTs:

SELECT (MY_INTEGER (FORMAT '-9(9)')) (CHAR(10))
SELECT CAST((CAST(MY_INTEGER AS FORMAT '-9(9))) AS CHAR(10))
