Thanks!

Hi,

Use the following expression:

Date(Date#(Timestamp, 'DD-MMM-YY')) AS DateField

Hope that helps.

I already solved the problem, thanks for your reply sir, I also used that expression and the main problem is that there's a space after the date in our source file so I have to trim it..

Thank you again sir!
