Hi!

Try to use something like:

if(Len(Trim(User_StartDate  ))=8,  [...alt...Date#(StartDate,'DD/MM/YY')...] ,

    if(Len(Trim(User_StartDate  ))=10, [...alt...Date#(StartDate,'DD/MM/YYYY')...] )

)

Your expression looks correct* so perhaps the problem dates contain hidden characters or white space. Perhaps you could upload a sample text file containing the problem dates (and 'good' dates).

*Your expression does not require the outer Date(Num ....)). This is redundant and will do nothing.
