Hi, I have a date column which I can format using output format, however, I have a requirement to display this date in some other date format while keeping the output format unchanged, what's the best way to do this? I tried to add a calculated column, set the expression to my date column and setup its output format, but it didn't work. Thanks

Did you set the system data type of the calculated column also to Date and Time? It works for me.

Yes, here's the setup: PublishDate: A Date type column with output format "MMM d, yyyy" PublishDate2: A calculated column with data type "Date and Time", output format "MMddyyyy" and Expression is "PublishDate" In xslt I used to display it and got "2008-09-01T00:00:00+08:00"

 Repost to correct format problem:

 

Yes, here's the setup:

PublishDate: A Date type column with output format "MMM d, yyyy"

PublishDate2: A calculated column with data type "Date and Time", output format "MMddyyyy" and Expression is "PublishDate

In xslt I used xsl:value-of select="udt:PublishDate2" disable-output-escaping="yes" to display it and got "2008-09-01T00:00:00+08:00"

The format for Calculated Colum only works in DataGrid, not in XSL, sorry. 

I used to parse the date as string inside xsl, similar to this approach: http://geekswithblogs.net/workdog/archive/2007/02/08/105858.aspx
