 StrToDateTime('2012-05-26', ); // what goes there?//
 

The second parameter is only needed when '2012-05-26' is not in your locale
date format. The way you use it is:

var
  FS:TFormatSettings;
  dt:tdatetime;
begin
  FS:=DefaultFormatSettings;
  FS.DateSeparator:='-';
  FS.ShortDateFormat:='-mm-dd';
  dt:=StrToDateTime('2012-05-26',FS);
end.

Note that specifying a ShortDateFormat of '-mm-dd' is not enough to set
the DateSeparator to '-'.

 How does that work with a string as input?
