Ability to change system defaults for export data formatting.

Our organization's style guide requires communications include data formatted for currency as $### for date as MMMM d, yyyy. These are not the default formats for data exports in Altru. When running acknowledgements, renewals, appeals, etc. we have to reformat our data manually. We rarely use the export process for communicating with our constituents and this seems to be the only area in which it is possible to adjust data formatting.

    Currently I have to export everything. Then I have a Macro set up that changes them all into the correct format. Occasionally my macro crashes, and then I have to redo the whole thing. (i.e. change /2018 to , 2018; change 01 to January; change 02 to February, etc.)
