Figuring out Date Format

Is there an API or a BIF that I can pass in an unknown date format and get
back a date format I can expect? I am seeing how difficult it might be to
allow a user to enter in a date how they want. (ex. '01012008' '01/01/2008'
'20080101') and return *ISO or something else. I could write a subprocedure,
but I thought I would see if there is something out there that would either
make the code easier or eliminate my needing it.
