First see what is the default date format of the project.
Generally it would be “%yyyy-%mm-%dd”
Then u need to change it to ur required format like :
“%dd-%mm-%yy”
Since the year is 2 digit year then u will have to mention
its four digit year before yy because datastage cannot
understand the latest and old year and it simply consider
year from 1900 century on wards.
So u will have to mention at ur job properties under default
at date as : “%dd-%mm-%2000yy” (must) without which
datastage will not consider u r given date format in
transformer stage date function and it simply go with the
Project’s default date format.
And also mentioning “%dd-%mm-%2000yy” format at job
properties and not mentioning “%dd-%mm-%2000yy” at
transformer stage also works fine.
Ex: if your date is (20-12-07,”%dd-%mm-%yy”) then datastage
consider default date format at job properties and will go
accordingly. And output will be 20-12-2007. And if
“%dd-%mm-%yy” is mentioned at job properties and u have
mentioned (20-12-07,”%dd-%mm-%2000yy”) then datastage will
not consider ur date format and simply it gives the output
as 1907-12-20.
So it is a good practice to see the default date format
assigned to the project and make changes accordingly and
attempt to do the process with it.
DateToString(StringToDate(DSLink3.date,"%dd-%mm-%2000yy"),"%mmm-%dd-%yyyy")
- dec-20-2007
DateToString(StringToDate(DSLink3.date,"%dd-%mm-%2000yy"),"%dd-%mmm-%yyyy")
-20-dec- 2007
DateToString(StringToDate(DSLink3.date,"%dd-%mm-%2000yy"),"%dd-%mmm-%yy")
- 20-dec-07

Now That’s what I call it cooooll.

Answer / prasad

use column datatype as varchar

DateToString(StringToDate(DSLink3.DateColumn,'%dd-%mm-%2000yy'),'%mmm-%dd-%yyyy')

use above format in derivation for transformer stage, u will get the desired output.
