If you can't rely on on two digits in each field (y2k bugs hit 2 digit
year fields you know:-) then use substring-after and substring-before to
split on / instead of using substring. Of course in most places
10/12/(20)00 would parse as 10th December rather than 12th October
so it was good you showed the desired output..
