Bueno, intento importar de un archivo .txt delimitado

con una línea de registro como esta.

36 | 787 | MARZO '17 | S | 202 | LOPEZ R. | 2207,68 | 0,00 | 0 | 20/03/2017 | 01 | 010036

Todos los campos se importan bien, excepto el campo de fecha, que aparece en blanco.

Just a thought, but as your date in the file to be imported shows as 20/03/2017, is it possible that your system is set to (or defaulting to) using an American style date (which would be 03/20/2017), so your import is rejecting it because there's no month 20 ?

Not exactly.
(unles the programmer is the creator of .txt file, in which case, yes! it's his fault.. ;) )

In fact, it's the date format that is wrong.
it should drafted to match this format: yyyymmdd to work.
so the 20/03/2017 should be 20170320

hint: in order to achieve such a date format, you must export date values using DtoS( dDate ).

regards,
Pete

I make many import from csv programs, to import csv data to our main accounting and inventory application. Many times the data consist of sale or purchases done by different system and database. So the csv files comes with different type of date formats.
We just confirm the format of date in the csv to import and adjust our code accordingly.

Anand

"... se reciben distintos archivos del tipo CVS con diferentes formatos de Fecha lo que hacemos es confirmar el tipo de formato para la fecha que usa en el CVS y ajustamos nuestro codigo acorde a ello "
