Hi, in the file I attached in Sheet2, the DATE2 column is not standard and it is not possible
to convert the column to a date, therefore I separated it into 3 Day Month Year columns.
The question is how do you create a date value that connects the 3 columns
(like the Date function in Excel)
Thank you very much for the answer!!!!!!! Leah

Your file didn't come through, but assuming the three columns are numbers like 5, 2 and 2023 then you can add a custom column with the following function.

= #date([Year],[Month],[Day])

While Riny has provided a formula solution, you could also achieve similar results by combining (concatenating) the columns with a delimiter such as the "/"
