You could create a named calculation in the DSV which formats the Date column however you like and the use this as the name of the attribute.|||Thank for replying my requirement
I did the same way but the format is not changed.. Also I tried to use that cube in a pivot grid table and tried to change the format there. Still the format is shown as yyyy/mm/dd like that..
|||You can either break the date into pieces and join it back together however you want
Code Snippet
datename(dd,DateOrder) + '/' + convert(varchar,month(DateOrder)) + '/' + datename(yyyy,DateOrder)
But you would have to do a bit more work on the above code to get it producing a leading "0" on the day and month.
Or you can use the third parameter of the convert function that is used when converting from a datetime to a string (which I prefer to use if I can)
Code Snippet
convert(varchar,DateOrder,103)
Format 103 is dd/mm/yyyy - Books Online has a list of all the format numbers in the help for the CONVERT() function|||
