Hello,

I've gotten to a point where I'm being asked to interpret date and time
stamps (character strings) of all varieties, many non-standard, and I was
wondering if anybody has some really trusty functions to intelligently
convert a string (* char) to a time_t or tm structure.  I'm just trying to
save myself the time of writing code that's very likely already out there.

Any help appreciated.  Please respond to my E-mail as directed in the
signature below.

Thanks,
TNKS
