Use an I-type to rebuild what? Why not just create Day, Month and Year as i-types that do the conversion (or as synonyms). I'm using UV syntax, but I'd either create a D-type called eg Year with a conversion field (field 3) of "D2[Y4]" (or whatever the correct syntax is, or an i-type with a location field (field 2) of "OCONV(..., "D2[Y4]")". I don't know if the first syntax would work in UV, so I certainly don't know if it would work in UD ... Not knowing what you mean by "rebuild", I can't offer any further hints...
