try something like this..as your format is changing so handle the different condition...for thounsand or records you can redirect the failing records to error file...below is the same code for your reference ....date --d="$i" +%d-%b-%Y

Code:
/bea/mani >cat dateformat.sh
IFS="
"
for i in `cat problem.txt| awk -F"," '{print $1}'`
do
echo $i;
if [[ "$i" == */* ]]
then
echo "String contains /"
dt=`echo $i | awk -F"\/" '{print $1}'`
if [ $dt -gt 12 ]
then
echo "Not a month"
mn=`echo $i | awk -F"\/" '{print $2}'`
i=`echo $i|sed "s/"${dt}\/${mn}"/"${mn}\/${dt}"/"`
echo $i
fi
fi
if [[ "$i" == *-* ]]
then
echo "Contains -"
dt=`echo $i | awk -F"\/" '{print $1}'`
if [ $dt -gt 12 ]
then
echo "Not a month"
mn=`echo $i | awk -F"\/" '{print $2}'`
i=`echo $i|sed "s/"${dt}\/${mn}"/"${mn}\/${dt}"/"`
echo $i
fi
fi
date --d="$i" +%d-%b-%Y
read;
done
