When creating a data dictionary, would you include code at the record level to transform/convert the field value from the 1st table to the format needed for the 2nd table? It sounds logical to me, but I haven't seen anything quite like it before and wondered if it made sense. So, if a date came in as "20070101" the dictionary would have an algorithm in a field on that record to convert it to [2007^01/01] before populating the 2nd table. Just curious before I begin coding for it... Thanks!
