Import CSV - Date

Re: [Toledoh] Import CSV - Date

Hi Tim,

I've done some testing and used this method to import data into a date field:

In my CSV spreadsheet (I use openOffice calc as my spreadsheet software, it's free and available here: http://download.cnet.com/OpenOffice-org/3000-18483_4-10263109.html) I had the date column set up as a date with the format YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss, and entered the dates in that format.

I then exported the CSV using , as the field delimiter and had no text delimiter.

After that I just followed the standard import procedure.

Thanks!
