Hi Alice,
Based on the string format that you mentioned (DD MMM YY - DAY) you
should be able to transform to any other date using the following:
$parts = explode(' ', '23 JUL 09 - THURSDAY');
echo date('m/d/Y', strtotime({$parts[1]} {$parts[0]} {$parts[2]}));
Cheers
Stuart

Looks like what I did by using mm/dd/ was extra, which was probably why it
didn't work.
Thanks, looks like this is up and running now.

Being trying to work out haw to handle dates. Basically I need a
function to convert a Date to a String and another function to convert

it's limited to
