There is nothing known about DATE in XSLT, i.e. there is no data type DATE. You must know, what is a DATE. Or you must use some extension function, but they are processor dependent.

the other words how do u decide whether it is date)

like in any other languages we check like IsDate("23122002") ,
in same way can i know whether it is a date based on that i would like to
format the  date part

Try:

<xsl:value-of
select="substring(Row[@id='0']/Col[@name='MfgDate'][@value],1,2 )"
<xsl:value-of
select="substring(Row[@id='0']/Col[@name='MfgDate'][@value],3,2 )"
<xsl:value-of
select="substring(Row[@id='0']/Col[@name='MfgDate'][@value],5,4 )"

Am not very sure about the path, but the general idea is to use the
substring function.
