Hi Art,

It appears you have a mix of 2-digit and 4-digit years. Check the difference in these 2 formats and their respective results:

values timestamp_format('8/9/2022 9:47','MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI')

2022-08-09-09.47.00.000000


values timestamp_format('8/9/22 9:47','MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI')

0022-08-09-09.47.00.000000

Documentation at https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/i/7.3?topic=functions-timestamp-format says

"A substring of the/string-expression/representing a component of adate ortimestamp (such as year, month, day, hour, minutes, seconds) can include less than the maximum number of digits for that component of thedate ortimestamp. Any missing digits default to zero. For example, with a format-string of 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS', an input value of '999-3-9 5:7:2' would produce the same result as '0999-03-09 05:07:02'."

Maybe check for the error and try the other format?

Did I do something wrong or do I need to try a different timestamp format?
Thank you

Thank you. This worked for me:

exec Sql set :outTmStp = Timestamp_Format(:inTmStp,
'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI');

With SQL:

Subject: Timestamp conversion

I'm receiving a timestamp in a CSV (generated in Excel) that looks like
this:

8/3/22 10:02

Is there a way to automatically move it to a timestamp field or do I need
extract the date and time separately, etc?

Thanks
