Re: how can i transform string to time date

You can interactively change the character column to a datetime value by going into the Column Information dialog and changing the data type to numeric, the modeling type to continuous, and then set the Format to d/m/y h:m:s, and then use a Format Pattern for the Input Format where you specify the input components
