[R] Date formats

[Data Analytics Corp.]

Hi,

I imported an excel table (using read.csv) of Dow Jones monthly average 
closings where the first variable is a date as a character string such 
as "01OCT1928".  How do I convert this to a date variable so I can plot 
monthly average closings against date using ggplot2?

Thanks,

Walt
