John,

You might try the "clone stamp" tool to do it. It will be more or less easy to do depending upon the overall image in the area of the date stamp.

For future reference, you might want to turn off the date stamp feature. The file information stored with the image will contain the date if you need to refer to it later on.

I had 130 pics with dates to erase. I used the clone tool and it worked great. I learned a lot using the clone tool. Had to clone out dates with water, grass, pavement. Great lesson.

Success with the clone tool depends a great deal on what the background is behind the date stamp. It can range from very easy to quite difficult.

Since the subject of the photo is usually near the center, another option would be to simply crop out the date stamp, if it’s not covering an important part of the photo.
