Hi I have many excel files were the Date field was not declared as date, so the dates look like this: 1/2/1978 I know that the format is day/month/year
How can I make R change this to Date format? If I use strftime, I get wrong dates: dataset=c("1/2/1978") strftime(dataset,"%d/%m/%Y") "19/02/0001" Thanks in advance. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
