If yes, can anyone please tell the logic

Thanks & Regards,

Hi

Not sure what you want. Assuming it is to change "2014/w1" to "2014 w1" then

Replace('2014/w1', '/', ' ')

Hi Vinitha,

Yes, it can. Let try:

=Replace('2014/w01','/',' ')

or

Year(DateField) & ' w' & Num(Week(DateField))

If your goal is to subtract 1 year from 2014:

addyears(Year(DateField), -1) & ' w' & Num(Week(DateField))

Hi,

Not sure if I understand you correctly, per my understanding you want to change '/' to space, so you can use:

Replace(2014/w01, '/', ' ')

It will give you 2014 w01)

If you want to use it for a fieldname then :

Replace([DateNum], '/', ' ')

Where DateNum is the fieldname.

Hope this helps!
