I must admit the conversion of the date was the biggest challenge to me.

Originally I tried to use the Formula tool, but I could not get the formula right, so I used the DateTime parser, and then added the Select to make sure the output match the solution output.

@hkeith,

 

Thank you for your post to Challenge #2.  I have never used StripQuotes() before.  You've taught me something new today.

 

Cheers,

I found the date conversion the most tricky bit. Struggled to do it by formula so took a few extra steps and tools than the suggested solution. Got there in the end!

Hi ,

 

This is my workflow. This challenge is a good example to show that there are many ways to handle the date field.

For example, using Formula Tool or DateTime Tool.

 

Thanks and Regards,

Samuel

Good challenge, my original solution wasn't quite as pretty, but it was understood when replicated
