Its scandalous I know, but I've managed to get through my whole career
without understanding the curly brackets in the doc :DATFMT(fmt{separator})
%date in my program in *eur format will give me '.' as separators. I want
'/'. Nowhere can I find a simple example of the above keyword with a
separator.

Please help.
Thank you
