Re: m/d/yyyy string to yyyymmdd decimal in SQL

I think most people would have the internal zero as in 12082018 for
2018-12-28. The leading zero, as in 1282018 for 2018-01-28 is where most
people would assume the optional part would come in. Most likely from an
incorrect method used to convert from decimal to character.
However, if you just have to be a literalist, I can see your point and he
should have called it mddyyyy. If for no other reason than to have
avoided this thread (and probably the only reason).
