I was unaware of the u2d or the d2u. I'll give them a try.

I learn alot about what is available in mplc by doing 'strings mplc' and then greping for xyz. I found these date related functions:
datetime
datejulian
datestr
datestrjulian
date2dos
date2julian
dateg2j
datej2g
datevalid
formatdate
dateunix
dateu2d
dated2u
userdatetype

I see now the dateu2d functions. I'll have to experiment.
