efficient way to qorking with time-series dates .I have attached the excel file

Hello,

Your attachment didn't come through, save the file in the csv format  
and name it *.txt.
Moreover, you ask what is wrong with your syntax, but what syntax?  
What is your code? Post a minimal example of what you are trying if  
you want answers from us.
In the mean time at an R pormpt try
> ?as.Date
> ?format
Hope this helps,

Rui Barradas
