Hi Everyone,
I am having issues in converting string value to datetime variable using assign activity
I am getting the error below:
I already use the function below: but I still get the error message
for my source file please see this:
TestFile.xlsx (10.2 KB)
I iterate on all those list using for each data table
Hopes someone can help me
Thank you!
Hi, when using DateTime.ParseExact, it does as the name suggests and looks for the exact format you gave, in your case “MM/dd/yyyy”. When read from the TestFile.xlsx the format actually includes the time too and it looks like this: “MM/dd/yy hh:mm:ss”.
You need to use either: DateTime.ParseExact(dateTimeAsString, “MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss”, System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)
or DateTime.Parse(dateTimeAsString).
