Hi Pablo, I am sending still slightly modified version (use local variables and better typographic output). It use of much variables, but at least it is clear how it works. For solution occurred me to use parsing function that I have been defined in the library, so that it can be successfully used.
Many thanks for your reply, Jaroslav. This is exactly what I need. Many thanks for your help, Pablo
\usemodule[scancsv]
\def\ddmmyyyy#1#2#3{% #1 - date, #2 - old separator, #3 - new separator \startlua local parsedate=thirddata.scancsv.ParseCSVLine('#1','#2'); local day=tonumber(parsedate[1]); local month=tonumber(parsedate[2]); local year=tonumber(parsedate[3]); if (year<2000) then year=year+2000 end; tex.print(day..'#3'..month..'#3'..year); \stoplua }

Hi Pablo
Here is a quick solution. However, it not treat the incorrect input data, ie it requires, however, correct input, otherwise it will collapse ...

\usemodule[scancsv]
\def\ddmmyyyy#1#2#3{% #1 - date, #2 - old separator, #3 - new separator \startlua parsedate=thirddata.scancsv.ParseCSVLine('#1','#2'); day=tonumber(parsedate[1]); month=tonumber(parsedate[2]); year=tonumber(parsedate[3]); if (year<2000) then year=year+2000 end; tex.print(day..'#3'..month..'#3'..year); \stoplua }

Dear list,
I have the following sample:
\usemodule[scancsv]
\unexpanded\def\lineaction{ \Name\ arrived on \Date\\ }
\setheader \setsep{;} \setfiletoscan{mail.csv}
\starttext \filelineaction \stoptext
that reads data from mail.csv:
Name;Date ME;11/10/14 You;05/02/14 He;15/02/2014 She;03/03/12 It;03/03/14
My question is simple (and not related to CSV data import): how can I define a command (ConTeXt or Lua) that changes date format from DD/MM/YY to DD/MM/YYYY when required?
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo
