It might be better to take a bit of time and formulate a question that describes the underlying problem. For example "I have been given a text file that contains dates in various unpredictable formats and I have been asked to convert them into dates that SQL Server can understand. Here are some examples..." Anyhoo, for this specific post, try this: print convert(date,replace('12/28/15 **',' **',''), 1)
