Modification Date
  The date the track's metadata was last changed.
Date Added

  The date/time the track was last played.
Skipped Date
  The date/time the track was last skipped.

If no value exists the destination track variable is cleared. If a value is extracted it is formatted as:

The function only works on files which which are linked.
