I'm having this problem with a table. I imported the data, and the date column is in Unix time seconds. To convert this date column to date, I added a custom column, with this formula:
(#datetime(1970, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0) + #duration(0, 0, 0, date))
Then when I go back and create a relationship with my Calendar table, the date filter doesn't work at all with this table, it just gets random dates, or similar, not really what the column has.
I am not sure if it has something to do with this, but the resulting column gets a text type by default, which I change to Date succesfully, or apparently. I have tried some other things here and there, and I even isolated the problem in a much smaller project, and it has the same exact odd results.
I've been chasing my tail the whole day, maybe someone has seen this before, please advise.
Here's a quick demo of what's going on: https://imgur.com/xF04Y41
PS: i can share the small project if that's helpful, not sure if it's safe to share a dropbox link here.
Solved! Go to Solution.
OK, the problem was the format, so that the relationship works just fine, both dates should be Dates, the column in the other table was DateTime, apparently that's why it wouldn't fall in the range.
