Ton, can you put the date into a variable and use "convert" on it? If not,
what error are you getting? It's my understanding that as long as the
internet date is formatted properly, it should work. I've used Rev's own
"internet date" format for my test, so if I do this:

  put the internet date
  -- returns: Sun, 15 Aug 2004 10:49:27 -0500

  put the internet date into tDate
  convert tDate to seconds
  put tDate
  -- returns 1092585002
