Can someone give me an example of how to create a DATE (L)datatype in a
VIEW? I'm trying to convert date formats from Alpha fields to true DATE
datatypes.

Use my iDate utility available at www.think400.dk/downloads.htm. 

iDate is a SQL Function that converts alpha and numeric fields
containing dates into date data types. Supports just about any format.
