Convert date

[Marcelino (Marcelino Alvarez)]

I obtained a date with the Get Value activity. I want to convert the obtained value 23-08-2017 into a date.Format: dd-MM-yyyy.
I already tried some options, like Convert.DateTime(“ Variable”).toString etc.
Also Parse Exact, but both without succes. I want to use the obtained (converted) date to compare it with other.
Does someone have a solution or several. As long as they work.
Thank you in advance.

@Marcelino DateTime.ParseExtract(“15/6/2018”, “dd/MM/yyyy”,System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.DateTimeFormat) will work if you use the correct date format as follows DateTime.ParseExtract(“15/6/2018”, “dd/M/yyyy”,System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.DateTimeFormat) or DateTime.ParseExtract(“15/06/2018”, “dd/MM/yyyy”,System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.DateTimeFormat) [DateTime] you can get custom Date and Time format here For more info about Date …

Hi, i guess your date now is in string format - var
Now you can convert string into datetime format
DateTimeVariable =DateTime.ParseExtract(var,“dd/M/yyyy”,System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentUiCulture.DateTimeFormat)

Data type of DateTimeVarible should be DateTime

Then try again.
I’ll let you know if it die work.
