[SOLVED] Reversing date only for HYYMDS field

Is there an easy way to reverse the date for a HYYMDS field so that the date is represented as mm/dd/yyyy, but yet includes the time (no changes to the time)? I'm sure I could break it up, flip it and then concatenate it back together, but I would think there would be an easier way using some type of date function and hmdyys or something to that effect....

If you want to print it in a report and it's a Date-Time field, all you need to do is specify the required Date-Time format:

TABLE FILE DEMO
PRINT
DTTM_FIELD/HMDYYS
BY COUNTRY
END
