Assuming you're using MSXML, the resource that you're after is the
MSXML SDK, which contains documentation of the Microsoft extension
element msxsl:script.  (There is no xsl:eval or xsl:script in
XSLT 1.0.)

Roughly, what you want is:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
                xmlns:msxsl="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt"
                xmlns:user="ericklind1@yahoo.com"
                version="1.0">

  <msxsl:script language="VBScript" implements-prefix="user">
     function formatDate1(idate)
       formatDate1 = formatDateTime(idate, vbshortdate)
     end function
  </msxsl:script>
  
  <xsl:template match="invoice">
    <xsl:value-of select="user:formatDate1(invoicedate)"/>
  </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

I hope that helps,

Jeni
