I am going to reply to myself. I think this will solve the problem but
i need to play some more to verify.

=IF(LEN(TRIM(A1))=6,DATE(LEFT(A1,2),MID(A1,3,2),RI GHT(A1,2)),IF(LEN(TRIM(A1*))=7,DATE(LEFT(A1,3),MID (A1,4,2),RIGHT(A1,2)),""))

and

=IF(ISERROR(IF(LEN(TRIM(A1))=6,DATE(LEFT(A1,2),MID (A1,3,2),RIGHT(A1,2)),IF(*LEN(TRIM(A1))=7,DATE(LEF T(A1,3),MID(A1,4,2),RIGHT(A1,2)),""))),"invalid
date
