"Not a valid date in accord with the XML format for ABAP" error while calling SAP PI web service

I'm getting this System.ServiceModel.FaultException calling an SAP XI/PI web service from my .NET application via WCF:

CX_SY_CONVERSION_NO_DATE_TIME:XSLT exception.An error occurred when deserializing in the simple transformation program /1BCDWB/WSSB430AA018B4EA689BF0.Value 7/12/2010 is not a valid date in accord with the XML format for ABAP

The date in question is a string field that I'm formatting with the .NET DateTime.ToShortDateString() method.

Can anyone tell me what the valid "XML format for ABAP" is for dates?

try YYYY-MM-DD otherwise you could browse the services wsdl and see how the date type is defined.
