Challenge #34: Date-Time Formatting

You essentially have to use text to columns breaking the string into year, month, day, hours and minutes and re-combining. You couldn't just create the datetime; you had to create the date first using a YYYY-MM-DD string and then datetimeadd hours and minutes.

Hi All, 

This is my first post and question, was a macro actually needed ?

In my solution I appear to have achieved the same output results with and without a macros simply using the datetime parse tool.

Is it correct or am I missing something ????
