Description
The MTOD() function is used to convert date strings in the format DD-Mmm-YYYY to date data types. The returned date will be in the format determined by SET CENTURY, SET DATE and SET MARK.
If <expC> is not a valid date string, MTOD() will return an empty date. The DD-Mmm-YYYY format is the calendar date format in Recital Mirage.
Example
set century on ? mtod("10-Oct-2008") 10/10/2008
