doedit

In a date field (8,mdy/) a few entries use a - rather than a slash i.e. 04-18-18 rather then 04/18/18.  As filePro excepts the dash- in the date field, will doedit change the - to a slash /?

If so, how would one write the program line?  The date field is field 8 in the file.  As there are only a few (14) out of 839 records, I could either write a process to update just those records or add the doedit to a lookup which uses this field.
Lookup filed is kah(8) which sets dummy field ds. Ds=kah(8).
