    Power Query Date Transformation

    Hi,

    I have downloaded social data and one of the metrics is 'followers gained by month'. However when the data pulls through, for the month it appears as '02/01/2018-02/28/2018' so February 2018.

    How would i transform this to be 01/02/2018 (UK) or just February 2018?

    When i click transform to date it appears as an error.

    Any help would be great!

    Attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to demonstrate your need. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are shown, mock them up manually if necessary.

    Remember to desensitize the data.

    Click on GO ADVANCED and then scroll down to Manage Attachments to open the upload window.
