How do I change column datatype after its been created or cloned.

For example, I cloned a datatable (no data). But want to change a column datatype from string to datetime.

How to replicate the following in uipath: ClonedTable.Columns[“Post. Date”].DataType = typeof(DateTime);

Thanks

Hello @Daemo

Hope this help :slight_smile:

ClonedTable.Columns["Post. Date"].DataType = GetType(System.DateTime)
