Formula to change date format

[drckarcher]

Hi,

I am importing a date/time field from another application. Its format is

2022-04-14T09:00:00 

How can I convert this to 14 April 2022 using a formula?

I get as far as Left([@field:EventDateTime],10)  (resulting in 2022-04-14) but can't figure out how to proceed from here,

Many thanks!

Hello @drckarcher - you may check this forum post

Just to add, you can set the format of the Date on the formatting settings on the DataPage so it will display as 21 April 2022.

There is an SQL formula that you can use to change the format of a Date field to DD MMM YYYY. 

CONVERT(varchar,[@field:FIELDNAME],106)

However, this formula only works in DataPages not in Formula Field.

I want to know the formula to change date format and for that I am searching for it online and I am glad I have found your post. While searching for it online, I also found a website online through which I can make a business plan bank loan. I want to start my own business and for that I need to make a business and also how can I take a loan from bank for starting my own business.

I have also faced a similar issue, but I wanted to get the date into a more usable format, here I am using UK format, but you can move the day and month around - 

Day / Month / Year

RIGHT(LEFT(CONVERT(VARCHAR, [@field:JobDate], 120), 10),2)

+ '/' + RIGHT(LEFT(LEFT(CONVERT(VARCHAR, [@field:JobDate], 120), 10),7),2)

+ '/' +LEFT(LEFT(CONVERT(VARCHAR, [@field:JobDate], 120), 10),4)

 

Hopefully this helps getting the date formatted within a formula field outside a datapage.
