No idea what you are asking. Is that string somewhere in your text file?
Do you expect it to transfer to a particular field in your database? What
happens when you try it?

Your post is very very vague.

Import it as text, and use an Update query to update a date/time field
to

CDate(Format([textdate], "@@@@/@@/@@"))
