Hi all, 

 

Below I have shared a sample dataset in which the Hire Date field has dates which are written in various Forms and is not in Constant form. So I am unable to change it to the desired below given date format. 

 

I want to change this to given Date format ( dd-mon-yy) - 16-Sep-22 . Can someone help me with this ?
