Date Conversion

Post by Bilwakunj »

Hi ,
I have a col of char '8' and another of char '10'. Using stringToDate() function I'm trying to convert these columns to a date, with the default date format. But it's not working. The job is getting aborted.
Can anybody plz tell me , what mistake I'm doing?

Thanks.

How about you tell us how you're trying to do it, then we might be able to spot a problem? It's really difficult to tell you if you're making a mistake if we can't see what you're doing!

And you might have better luck if you posted on the Parallel forum rather than here on the Server forum.

Expect to have to filter out some server-based responses.
