Date Conversions

rdp
6 - Meteoroid

Hi Rod,

I'm really struggling with getting my String to convert to date format when looking at http://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Knowledge-Base/Date-Conversions/ta-p/3587  When I originally connected to the data my Start Date was a string Start Date.pngwhich I then parsed out to be in their own columns parsed string.png.  

Convert String to Date.png

Then, I concatenated Month Date Year field and that looks great but I need to now convert that from a String to a Date.  I've tried using the DateTime in Parse and that did not work.  I also tried just changin the format in my Outfield Type to Date.  Either way I get NULL in the field.  This is my first time using Alteryx and I'm hoping that's why I am struggling so much with this.

 

I appreciate any assistance you can offer.

 

Renee
