st: date command error?

Hi all,
I am running Stata 12 on a Mac, and am having trouble with the date command.
My datestr values are in the format MM/DD/YY
I am trying to convert these to a date format using
gen dates=date(datestr, "MDY")
dates is generated, but its an empty column. Is there something I'm missing?
Thanks,
Steve
