VBScript CDate
Function
The CDate function converts a valid date and time expression to the Date type and returns the result.
Tip: Use the IsDate function to determine if a date can be converted to a date or time.
Note: The IsDate function uses local settings to detect if a string can be converted to a date (in all languages, "January" is not a month).
