Hello,

 

@Antonio1969 

 

The original date:

 

16-JUN-01

 

Its format is broken up like this:

 

16: dd

JUN: Mon.

01: yy

 

When you put this back together with the hyphens, the format looks like this:

 

dd-Mon.-yy  

 

 

So, if you select dd-Mon.-yy as your format, the date will convert.

Try that format in the DateTime tool, and it will work.

 

Good luck,

 

Nick

Hi,

 

first time sharing solving a weekly challenge here. Here you can find my solution. In fact, they are two. One using RegEx tool and another using Formula tool with RegEx inside. Maybe someone will find it interesting to check some basics on RegEx. Learning Regex step forward your level on parsing data. I encourage you to skill on it!
