Hi @Abhishekjoshua 

 

Please consider the final output as the below. Where I have fine tweaked to work on all different date types.

Hi @Abhishekjoshua 

 

Explaining what happens in my workflow, 

 

I have used Text to Columns tool, as I see your data is using a delimiter -

Hence the output is split into 3 different columns.

Then the incoming date might be

8-Jan-22

12-Jan-22

15-Jan-2022

 

the expected output is 

08  Jan  2022

12  Jan  2022

15  Jan  2022

 

Hence used the formula tool to check the condition whether it contains 2 digits, if not used PadLeft option to add 0 in the front.

Same in year also.

 

Hope this helps!!!! Hope your issue is resolved. Feel free to mark helpful answers as a solution, so that future users with the same issue can find them easier!!!!

 

Many thanks

@ShankerV  Hi, when the column is spilt into 3, how can I name the 3 columns differently?

Hi @Abhishekjoshua 

 

One more method also, where can use RegEx tool.

By this method, I can reach the solution with just 2 tools highlighted in yellow.
