Hi All,
I am trying to convert a text column to date column. All the data is:
30/06/2023
I have tried to use a number of options,
Date.FromText( [column name], "dd/mm/yyyy")
Date.FromText([column name], [Format="dd MMM yyyy"])
Date.FromText([column name], [Format="dd/MM/yyyy"])
However, nothing is working and I am getting Error all the time.
Please can you explain why?
Thanks,
Naveen
