Clement:

I think you have 2 different errors in your script:

1. The error already highlighted by other forum members.
2. You are creating a class named "Test" and a method for it, and later 
on you try to call this method inside an object that belongs to a 
totally different class (Date class). If you want to add the new method 
to the Date class you only need to write:

class Date
  def toDDMMYYYY(sep)
    strftime("%d#{sep}%m#{sep}%Y")
  end
end

In this way the new method will be available in any date object. You 
need to modify your main code too:

class MainLogic
  def show_date
    d = Date.today
    d.toDDMMYYYY("-")
  end
end

Rgd,

Nando
