String Formating Date

Solved!
Go to solution

Hello, this is most likely an easy thing to do but I am not great at formatting string data type.

 

What I am trying to do is take a time stamp (ex: 10/31/17) and format it to 10-31-17.

 

I am not sure have to change the "/" into "-" or remove it all together so the date is just 103117 that is fine too.

I have found the Help for the Format Date/Time String Function to be quite useful.

Not sure what you are using.

Perhaps the Format Codes for the Time Format String would be helpful.
