Hello,

 

I am working on a project that requires me to use a schedule chart. I have 2 variables in a similar format.

 

1) CLASS START DATE (data format: d/m/yyyy hh:mm)

2) CLASS END DATE ((data format: d/m/yyyy hh:mm)

 

Part of the project requires me to get the time portion of the data. So naturally, i used this formula below:

to which yielded the desired outcome of only the time portion of the data being displayed as shown below:

However, when trying to apply the same technique/formula to the second variable, Class End Date, the results yielded a different result as below

Capture6.JPG

As shown in the picture below, the values are shown only as 0:00. I went back to the source data to recheck and reconfirm the data format/type but could not find any errors/irregularities.

 

Regards

Dan

That's what your data looks like, but it could be character variable or a numeric value with a format and those are different to deal with.

What's the type/format on your original variable?

Hello,

 

i seem to have made a mistake while writing the question, I have re-edited the question and I hope you will take a look at it again.

 

As i described above, the format of the data is in the (dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm) format
