[R] "timeDate" package: Read dates from xls or txt

[jpm miao]

Hi,

   timeDate package create a date vector like this:

   Dates <- c("1989-09-28","2001-01-15","2004-08-30","1990-02-09")


   I have a date whose size is large. Could this package read the dates
from xls or txt files? Could we convert the read vector (e.g., I usually
use XLConnect to read xls files) to the date?

   Thanks,

Miao
