String Length

Hi All,

One of my source file is having Date column and the format of the column is YYYY-MM-DD. As per my business logic I have to check if the date format either YYY-MM-DD or YYYY-M-DD. If any records are in this format then I have print all the records and send those invalid records through mail to user.

Ex:
Code:
CutomerId PurchasedDate Amount
 
1478210,2014-02-15,250
1345721,999-03-20,400
2678103,2010-4-10,500
3218923,2013-05-18,600

Expected Output:

CutomerId PurchasedDate Amount

Code:
1345721,999-03-20,400
2678103,2010-4-10,500

Kindly help me how can I achive above result.
