I have a file with records containing dates like:

Okay, but not all the dates are being converted as well.

"200301106" is not a valid date.

I have a file with some date columns in MM/DD/YYYY format:

SMPBR|DUP-DO NOT USE|NEW YORK||16105|BA5270715|6/6/2007 |MWERNER|109||||JOHN||SMITH|MD|72211118||||||74559|21 WILMINGTON...

That's better...

Thanks for your time and effort.

Thanks Vidya,

1995.01.27-00:00:00

Maybe it has to do with the '0'.
