Hi all,
I am using SSIS to create xls from sql table.
I have a data reader that reads sql table.
date format in sql is yyyy-mm-dd 00.:00:00.000
Final excel document also displays this format.

My question is how to I transform this to dd/mm/yyyy and strip out the time.Ihave tried data transform task to use just date but i don't want to create a new column but rather transform the column inline..

Any help please
Ray..
