Would be interesting whats your format string looks like. Not all format flags work with all date_time classes. %z (Time zone) for instance works only with local_date_time.

It seems that no matter what formatting I try to use, it doesn't work. Example:
TimeConverter sampleFile.txt %d:%m:%Y_%H:%M:%S %m:%d:%Y_%H:%M:%S
sampleFile.txt:
05:01:2007_23:08:02
06:01:2007_23:09:04
expected output: (month and day positions switched)
2007-Jan-05 23:08:02
01:05:2007_23:08:02
2007-Jan-06 23:09:04
01:06:2007_23:09:04
output:
2007-Jan-05 23:08:02
2007-Jan-05 23:08:02
2007-Jan-06 23:09:04
