Hi,



I'm new to talend.
I have a column with date data type and i need to store it as a string in the target.
How to do that??


Thanks in advance

Hi,
Here is a built-in method TalendDate.formatDate(String pattern, java.util.Date date) in tMap to convert date to string.
Please see my screenshot
In addition, there is a component tConvertType which allows specific conversions at runtime from one Talend java type to another.

Best regards
