[R] Exist the S 'dates' function in R?

[Garcia, Jose Angel (Jose Angel)]

Good afternoon,

I am a new user of the R application, and I don't know to much about the
lenguage.

I am  trying a to run some of the S programs I have, and some of them are
crashing with the "dates" function. This function translate a character
string into a 'dates representation object'. 

Do you know if there is a similar function in R?

Thank you very much for your help

Regards

Jose Angel
