Hi,

May be  this,

Table:

Load Date(Date#(Timestamp,'MM/DD/YYYY hh:mm:ss TT'),'MM/DD/YYYY') as Date,

Time(Round(Date#(Timestamp,'MM/DD/YYYY hh:mm:ss TT'),1/24),'hh:mm TT') as HR,

Replace(Left(Message, Index(Message,' ',2)),'My ','') as Person,

Right(Message, Len(Message)-Index(Message,' ',2)) as Action;

Load * Inline

Hi MJ,

More dynamic:

Final:

LOAD

    Date(Floor(Timestamp),'MM/DD/YYYY')    as Date,

    Time(Round(Frac(Timestamp),Time#('01:00','hh:mm')),'hh:mm TT') as Hour,

    SubField(Message,' ',2)    as Person,

    Trim(Right(Message, (Len(Message)-(index(Message,SubField(Message,' ',2))+Len(SubField(Message,' ',2)))))) as Task

RESIDENT Data;

Regards!!

Hi Manish,

This is what I really need in some of my data.

My example is a bit generic, but the action sometimes need to dig into.

Thanks,

with best regards,

Hi Manuel and Tamil,

Appreciate also your insights.

Might used it if I have standard data.

Thanks.
