CSV String to Date was created by tdemeza@natrisk.com
I am sorry to keep asking questions, but I read the Wiki, test, read again, test, and I am befuddled. I am trying to simply Convert a date from a CSV file to a date to insert into my SQL table.
The date in the csv is : 9/27/2018 12:00:00 AM
So I chose the Date Format tool and chose the format : MM/DD/YYYY HH:NN:SS TT
I get a Null if there is an error, and I cannot get anything except a Null. What could I be doing wrong?
FYI - In my SQL Table the destination field is a SmallDateTime. Not sure that matters, because I cannot get the string into a date format regardless.

MM means that month is always two characters long
09/23/2000 and not 9/27/2000
In your case month is one character long, therefore, the correct format is:
M/D/YYYY HH:NN:SS TT
09/23/2000 and not 9/27/2000
