Code: Select all
StringToTimeStamp(In.Col,'%yyyy%mm%dd%hh%nn%ss')
and
Bob's your uncle as some Yorkshire friends of mine are prone to saying.

If I try the code on 7.1 then it works without warning. but Try on version 7.5 then we get the error
Warning:--Input_file,0: Conversion error calling conversion routine timestamp_from_string data may have been lost
do you know why? thanks

You have more digits than are required (that is, your string includes fractional seconds, but your date format string does not).
