Changing text field to Date

I am linking to a text file and I need to change the date field "Posting
Date" to a Date type. I am trying to use this code that I found on this
site:
Expr1: Format(CDate([Posting Date]),"mm/dd/yyyy"), but it doesn't work
correctly when I try to sort by the date, it is sorting like the date
field is still text (06/01/2008 is below 07/01/2008, when sorted
decending).
Thanks in advance.
