DBQuery and epoch

I am creating a dashboard form that is driven off of a text box, and a drop-down. I am trying to dynamically populate the dropdown with the valid date choices for reporting as stored in the DB. The problem is the date is a string in the DB I am querying (20,120,331). NO problem I thought.. I will use the TO_DATE oracle function. Now, the date is showing in Epoch in splunk UI (1333166400). Anyone have any idea on how to make this display correctly?

--I already tried convert - convert timeformat="%H:%M:%S" ctime(time)--
