Hi,

I have dates in the following format: 4/8/2006 (MM/DD/YYYY).  I need to have R compare date A to date B to figure out which one is more recent.  Is there a way to do that?  Simply using the '>' or '<' signs doesn't seem to work.  I think in this case R treats '/' as a division sign and gives me erroneous results.

Thanks a lot for your help.
Irina
