Aha - well, I use Formulator for forms, so if the form has validated I 
know I can safely use string manipulation to assemble the DD-MM-YYYY 
subfields into an ISO date.

Assuming you are validating this input prior to trying to stuff it in 
the dB (you should!), it should be possible to create the ISO-formatted 
string as you validate.

If you want an example of how I do this with Formulator (which I find v. 
useful!), I'd be happy to send one...
