I have found the algorithm of conversion of date-time to UNIX, but I got another result.
"Sep 5, 2010 11:47PM" should be converted to 1283730420.
Check it, please, carefully.
You should use Evaluate action with expression:
(cdbl(#09/05/2010 11:47PM#) - 25569)*24*60*60
Also see the example, which can convert any datetime value:
Code: Select all

You should copy only text in "code" section and save it as *.tsk file. Next you can import it.
I've tried this, everything is OK.
I can send this task to you via email, if it's necessary.

The task is correct. It uses Basic plugin. I thought that you have Basic already installed.
download and install it here
It's free.
If you want to make some complex or non-standard calculations, it's better to make this on Basic.
