All,
I have a project where I will be receiving a csv file from an external
system.
The dates will be formatted as m/d/ccyy (including separators).
ie:3/5/2012,3/1/2012,10/1/2012.....

I need to convert them to ISO format.
Can I use the %Date BIF to convert them?
If not what is the best method?

Thanks,
