Thanks Norman,
Sorry to be a pain, I tried that myself too, but it gives Tuesday,
August 1980 - the date 12 is not there, try it out in an editfield
in RB2007R1 and you will see.

There's an extra space in there before " August" so it messes up the
splitting of the day and month.
And I had the day and month backwards
dim weekday as string
dim monthPart as string
dim month as string
dim day as string
dim year as string
weekday = nthfield(dateStr,",",1)
monthPart = trim(nthfield(dateStr,",",2)) // note the TRIM !!!!
day = nthfield(monthPart," ", 2)
month = nthfield(monthPart," ", 1)
year = nthfield(dateStr,",",3)
dateStr = weekDay + ", " + day + " " + month + " " + year
