No where i have hard coded the date in my solution. If the format MM-DD-YYYY occurs anywhere in the line then it will output.

Code:
$ cat samp
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx09-10-2006xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
sfsd12-12-2007dfdfd
08-30-2003dfdfdfdf
fgfgfgf01-01-2001
$ sed 's/^.*\([0-9]\{2\}-[0-9]\{2\}-[0-9]\{4\}\).*$/\1/' samp
09-10-2006
12-12-2007
08-30-2003
01-01-2001
$

HTH,
