Extract hour from a datetime field

Hello,

 

I need to extract the hour from a datetime field into a new column. The current format is YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,

 

Use a FORMULA tool, set the field type to String and set the formula to:

 

DateTimeFormat([YourField],"%H")     - where [YourField] is the field with the date time

 

Cheers,

Bob
