re placing the dates format in R for exporting the data set...
First of all '2009-08-06' is 1995; this is probably not what you were expecting. What do you what your expression to do? Is 'toms_dat' a dataframe? if so, your expression 'toms_dat ==2009-08-06' seem strange. So tell us what you want to do, not how you want to do it.
