VBScript CDate Function
 Complete VBScript Reference
The CDate function converts a valid date and time expression to type Date, and returns the result.
Tip: Use the IsDate function to determine if date can be converted to a date or time.

can be converted to a date ("January" is not a month in all languages.)
