Date Format Issue

Hey,

I have date in the following format including time stamp.

29/09/2013 09:15

When I load this date field in qvw file it is represented in the following format

41487.4638888889

I want to separate time stamp and date in order to use only date as dimension.

any ideas??

try this

in script-

Date(Date#(datefieldname,'DD/MM/YYYY hh:mm'),'DD/MM/YYYY hh:mm') as datefield


example--

in text box

=Date(Date#('29/09/2013 09:15','DD/MM/YYYY hh:mm'),'DD/MM/YYYY hh:mm')

use Date() function, below is sample

Date(datefield,'DD-MM-YYYY') for date

Date(datefield,'hh:mm') for timestamp

Hi Hannan,

That very clear. This one should do your job

Date(Floor(DateField)) As Dates
