Hi GeneR,

 

Used the data cleansing tool to clean the punctuation from the first 2 columns then used the following custom date format in a datetime tool:

'dd-Mon-yy'

Here we go for the second one. I found this one very easy. Except had to research on date format, a new learning for me. Also, I have used the Data Cleansing tool which is just awesome and easy one. Comments? Suggestions?

The data cleansing tool saves a lot of time.

nicely done Yug - I've not used the "StripQuotes" formula before, so that's fun to see.
