Map date in VL

i’m trying to do this.


(i faked it)

the map does not understand my request.
so what i tried is to convert the date to a seconds timestamp with “FromDateTime”
(seconds since year 0 of gregorian calendar)
the seconds timestamp i can map fine, but then i can’t get it back to a date. is there a way?

This is one way to do it : MapDateTime.vl (16.9 KB)

I also like adding the ToString (Format) node to format the final datetime again. You can see all the shortcodes or construct your own using .NET date formatting https://www.codeguru.com/csharp/formatting-date-and-time-values-in-net/

That way you can get the format OP is using (sortable).

this is great. i didn’t have the advanced node thing on. so i never saw any of those nodes. 🙄
