Hey Guys,
I have a set of data for training and I reach the point where I pivot the data properly yet, when I try to change the data type from text to date format (by changing type or using the date from text function it always returns error)
any Idea how to fix this ??
Solved! Go to Solution.
Date.From(Text.Combine(Splitter.SplitTextByAnyDelimiter({"st ","nd ","rd ","th "})([Attribute]),"-"))
Date.From(Text.Combine(Splitter.SplitTextByAnyDelimiter({"st ","nd ","rd ","th "})([Attribute]),"-"))
Worked like magic
don't wanna bother, but can u tell me what was I doing wrong and how u wrote this formula, I'm a newbie in M
text with "st ","nd ","rd ","th " can not be recognized as a date, so you must replace them with "-".
Hi, @Anonymous ;
You could try it.
1.replace "," to ""
2.add custom column.
Date.FromText(
Text.Middle(Text.SplitAny([Hours], " "){0},0,
Text.Length(Text.SplitAny([Hours], " "){0})-2)
& "-"&Text.SplitAny([Hours], " "){1}
& "-"&Text.SplitAny([Hours], " "){2})
The final show:

You need to remove the ordinal suffixes.
Something like:
#"Convert to Date" = Table.TransformColumns(#"Previous Step", {
"Attribute", each Date.From(List.Min(List.Accumulate({"st","nd","rd","th"},{}, (state, current)=>
state & {Text.Replace(_,current,"")}))), type date
})
