Hello Gaucho.

I think what you are asking is to display date in format of dd:mm:yyyy

You can change that here

Hi @Idkpowerbi 
No it is not what i am trying to do. In My screenshort you can see that there is always "1900". That is already problem i want to solve. 

I cannot understand your logic in getting from what you show to what you want

Please show

  • Your original data
    • If your data is confidential, then make up some data that demonstrates the problem 
    • Best to post this as text or an Excel table which can be copy/pasted.
  • A screenshot of your desired results from that data
  • Your current code
    • To obtain this:
      • Select "Advanced Editor"
      • Copy the contents of the window that opens
      • Open the Code Sample window here `</>`
      • Paste the code into the Window
  • A statement of your logic in going from your original data to your desired results

As an aside, you are not showing any Julian dates (or dates from a Julian Date Calendar) in the data you have shown us so far, so I especially don't understand the significance of your question title.
