Hi Tamar,
just out of curiosity.
How will one define a interface, let's say csv, and not define date format? I allways do something like
field n use blabla type date in the form YYYY-MM-DD in the interface documentation and SET DATE for the import.
If the import comes with DD.MM.YYYY it's like an alpha in a numeric field. Or would you parse each and every field? This could be a challenge - in time sense. :)
