In this case, you're lucky. The date is always a fixed length:
MM/DD/YY (so 1/1/03 is 01/01/03 etc).
print get date$()
print day$(get date$())+" / "+month$(get date$())+" / "+year$(get date$())
wait key
end
function day$(date$)
day$=mid$(date$,4)+mid$(date$,5)
endfunction day$
function month$(date$)
month$=mid$(date$,1)+mid$(date$,2)
endfunction month$
function year$(date$)
year$=mid$(date$,7)+mid$(date$,8)
endfunction year$
This is easier than splitting the string, based on "/" and returning value's that way.
