How to convert flat file date ("041304") into sql Server date format in DTS
Hi ,
My client is sending one flat file which will be having one column called date field but in that date is coming like "041304". But through DTS i want to send it to my SQL Server table like this "13-Apr-2004". How to translate this ?
Do you think putting ActiveX script in middle and implement below logic is suggestable ?
Dim str
str = DTSSource("myDate") ' 041304
str = Mid(str, 1, 2) & "-" & Mid(str, 3, 2) & "-" & Mid(str, 5, 2) '04-13-04
DTSDestination("myDate")=c
Please suggest me good solution in this
