Parse Complex Date

[tleish]

I have a small time card application that writes the info to a txt file. I'm trying to parse through the txt file with ColdFusion, but I'm not sure how to parse out the date format.

I've talked to the developer of the application, but they don't know anything about the date, the use another app to write to and read from the txt file. Supposedly it's supposed to be writing in an INI or Registry format, but I don't know much about that.

Any ideas?

Here are some of the strings. The dates I'm trying to parse are in bold:

7/22/01 00:00:00 (12:00:00 AM)
date=454C 8 00 00 00 00 C0 1C E2 40

7/22/01 00:30:00 (12:30:00 AM)
date=454C 8 AB AA AA AA C0 1C E2 40

7/22/01 00:30:00 (9:30:30 AM)
date=454C 8 2E D8 82 AD CC 1C E2 40

7/20/01 00:00:00 (12:00:00 AM)
date=454C 8 00 00 00 00 80 1C E2 40 - tleish

What program did the developer use to write to and read from the .txt file?

I think it might have been Cobalt. I was going to ask that forum, but I was hoping some of my fellow CF friends could help out. I'll try there. - tleish

Actually, looking at it again it looks like it's written in Delphi or C++ - tleish
