date format in packingslip and invoice

[etoile03]

I wanted to change the Date Ordered on the packing slip and invoices to display September 14, 2006 instead of the default Thursday 14 September, 2006.

Can I just change the function define('DATE_FORMAT_LONG', '%A %d %B, %Y'); to define('DATE_FORMAT_LONG', '%A %B %d, %Y'); in the admin/includes/languages/english.php file.

Or, will this not work? Thanks!
