How to get date from Power FX

Posted on by 2
Hi I'm trying to take a date from a column called Start Date. It's formatted as MM/DD/YYYY. I’m trying to create a formula column where it takes the month and the day and changes the year to the current year. I’m having issues creating a formula column since Date isn’t supported. Anyone have any suggestions?

    I am not sure what you mean by Date isn't supported - firstly what is your Data Source ? If anything other than Excel (which you need to consider moving from ASAP), the formula would be 
    Date(Year(Today()), Month(YourDateField), Day(YourDateField))
    If you trying to convert a string to a date
    With(
       {_Date:Split(YourString,"/")},
       Date(Year(Today()), Month(First(_Date).Value), Day(Index(_Date,2).Value))
    )
