Combining Fields

Greetings - I have a weird question. I have a user that wants to take a date field (IE: 12-29-67) and combine these numbers into a new field that will just show 122967. I've tried several things but I can figure how to do this. I'm on Adobe Pro 8.1.

Use the "Custom" option for the "Date" option on the "Format" tab. If you use JavaScript and the JS data object, make sure you force the value of this field to be a String value and not a Number value as many date methods require the input date value to be a string and not a floating point number.
