I would say it is not a valid date format...even at the most, a date would have 8 digits...12312006. If that is also including the time, then I think you have to parse out the individual components to display it. If the date is really 12/7/93...you are going to have issues in doing a generic parsing without a lot of code to take into account variation in format, like not using leading 0's to maintain spacing (120793). What does the number represent?

I tried dateFormat(number, "mm/dd/yy") and it returns 12/02/292269055. I think it is because it is supposed to return both date and time. Let me know if you want to format it to display both date and time.
