Solved

 

Not sure if this old challenge pre-dates the DateTime Tool, but this couldnt have been simpler to build a macro based on that tool...  😀

Was able to return the same output by using a simple custom date/time format.

My solution attached.

 

A simple date time tool gets the job done. Not sure if the macro is necessary. 

 

I went through the macro solution since I am still working on getting better with macros.
