How to parse DATE into Date in *.t6

Hello,

The first, date field of my input price data file is already in DATE format - which is a double.

What's the correct way/format to parse it into DATE in the output *.t6 format?
All format codes for dataParse seem to assume floats..

Thanks!

There is no format code for an ASCII DATE value, I would use %t to import it as Unix time, then go through the file and convert it back to DATE time.

Yes,that's what I came to after some trial. Thank you.
