filehelps importing datetime

Question

I'm trying to use the FileHelps to import a csv. I need the date to be in mmddyyyy format when importing but the defualt is ddmmyyyy. I see where in c# you use

[FieldConverter(ConverterKind.Date, "MMddyyyy" )] 
Public Property BeginningDate as datetime

however that doesn't work in vb.net and the converters i've tried aren't helping either. Was hoping someone could tell me how to covert that. thanks shannon

found the answer.

 <FieldConverter(ConverterKind.Date, "MMddyyyy")> _
    Public mBeginningDate As DateTime

    Public Property BeginningDate As DateTime
        Get
            Return mBeginningDate
        End Get
        Set(pValue As DateTime)
            mBeginningDate = pValue
        End Set
    End Property

Thanks Shannon
