Ed,

It is best to maintain dates in the tiddler serial number form for maximum 
functionality, however use the view widget to present them in whatever 
format you want.

If you want to proceed with the conversion still, we can provide advice on 
how, but the simplest is to build a button containing a list widget that 
locates, reformats and uses action set field widget to store the new date 
(After import)

But again I recommend against this. In fact it may be wise to store you 
desired formatting in a tiddler like this date-display. Then view widget 
template={{date-display}} so it can be modified later with ease and update 
everywhere you use it.

Regards
Tony
