I am reading in data from a file. The data includes date and time values which 
I initially read from the file as strings. 

How do I create a Date object from a String object, where the String holds a 
date and time? Surely Real Basic must have a built-in method for creating a 
Date object from such a string?

I have tried parseDate, but it zeros the time component.

// dateTimeString is 23-Nov-10 8:30:00 a.m.
// After call...
// aDate is 2010-11-23 00:00:00
// aValidDate is true
aValidDate = ParseDate(dateTimeString, aDate)
