Is the length set as an "*"?  I did not know you could do that.

AFAIK, this is ONLY caused by placing a value that exceeds field length 
so, if you were to make sure field is set to 6,mdy/ instead of *,mdy/ it 
just may fix it.

I also show the results of @td in the debugger.  When I run the date commend from the shell I get the correct date.
