Date Type in Data Manager

I have a source data field that has dates in the format "Jan 7, 2021".  The Data Manager gives it a data type of "General".  I would like the Data Manager to import the field as a "Date" data type.  Changing the data type in Data Manager returns blank values.  Can anyone suggest how I should be doing this.

Hi, you can try adding a field and use Date(Date#(OriginalFieldName, 'MMM DD, YYYY'))
