I find in an old post (AMS5) an idea.
I'am not sure that it's the best way but it works.

Pluging Calendar ==> OnSelect Event:

-- convertion to Euro format
strdate = e_StartDate
year = String.Left(strdate, 4);
month = String.Mid(strdate, 6, 2);
day = String.Right(strdate, 2);
Euro_date = (day.."/"..month.."/"..year); 

If you have a more elegant solution please post it!

this is likely to be the elegant solution that you are looking for , since the calendar plugin is back to front (year - month - day);
ysing the string parsing method should suffice.. you will also need to convert back into yyyy-mm-dd format when interacting with the calendar plugin ofc.
Iam not experienced enough to offer any better solution sorry. and glad you found at least a solution to your problem.
