		Hello,
I currently working on a dashboard and I am extracting data from an existing file.
I successfully extracted the data but I need to manipulate the field (to produce date fields like Month, Year)
I need tips on how to do this
Please see attachments for clarity..
Best Regards
Akpofure

		I guess create a Master Calendar which links to your field you want it to link to.

		Calender
Load
<Date.Filed Name> As date
Month(<Date.Filed Name>) as Month
MonthName<Date.Filed Name> ) as MonthName
Year(<Date.Filed Name> ) as Year.
resident <tableName
 
					
				
		
You could add a new Mater Calendar table Creating A Master Calendarin your and join that to the date field from your binary load.

		Thanks M. Kumar
Please I try this script you suggest, It didn;t load..
Please find attached file....
Maybe I didn't arrange the syntax well...
The table name is the one I will give to the qvw file.

		Few things are not right
Remove "Calender: " Before Binary load ( Please read the concept of binary load and its limitation)
Then below script
Load
CH.DOC.LAST_CHANGED_AT
CH.DOC.LAST_CHANGED_AT As date,
Month(CH.DOC.LAST_CHANGED_AT) as Month,
MonthName(CH.DOC.LAST_CHANGED_AT) as MonthName,
Year(CH.DOC.LAST_CHANGED_AT) as Year,
resident "Name of the table in which field CH.DOC.LAST_CHANGED_AT is present after binary load "
As Sunny and Bill suggested Master calendar is way to go..
