# DateConvert

Converts dates to a different date format.

If you specify the Date parameter only, the Content component converts a date in one of the standard date formats to the `AUTNDATE` value and a human-readable `dd/mm/yyyy` date string.

If you specify both Date and DateFormat, Content converts the specified date string to its `AUTNDATE` value and a human-readable date string in the DateFormat that you specify.
