Question Solved: Date: Convert m to mm
Hi all,

I've searched through the forum and can't find a thread specific to this question:

I have a CSV file with a date column, the dates I'm given from the original file look like: "m/dd/yyyy" (UNLESS it's a double digit month, like October, where it would then show up as "mm/dd/yyyy"). Is there an easy way where I could add a "0" to the "m" if the month has a single digit?

I know I can grab the column using awk, I just don't know how I can perform the if statement to add the "0" prefix to the month from the value I'd grab (which in this case, would by $4 as far as awk is concerned). Any pointer in the right direction sure would be appreciated, if this is doable.

Thanks!
