Convert String to Date and Format the Date Expression in SSRS

Hi,
I have a parameter used to select a month and year string that looks like:    jun-2013
I can convert it to a date, but what I want to do is, when a user selects a particular month-year  (let's say "jun-2013")
I populate one text box with the date the user selected , and (the challenge Im having is) I want to populate a text box next to the first text box with the month-year 2 months ahead.    So if the user selects
jun-2013   textbox A will show jun-2013
and textbox B will show aug-2013..
I have tried:
=Format(Format(CDate(Parameters!month.Value ),
"MM-YYYY" )+ 2 )   -- But this gives an error
This returns the month in number format   like "8"    for august...
=Format(Format(CDate(Parameters!month.Value ),
"MM" )+ 2 )
What is the proper syntax to give me the result    in this format = "aug-2013" ???
Thanks in advance.

You can convert a string that represents a date to a date object using the util.scand JavaScript method, and then format a date object to a string representation using the util.printd method. For more information, see:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.1254.html
http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.1251.html
In your case, the code would be something like:
var sDate = "2013-01-10";
// Convert string to date
var oDate = util.scand("yyyy-mm-dd", sDate);
// Convert date to new string
var sDate2 = util.printd("mm/dd/yyyy", oDate);
// Set a field value
getField("date2").value = sDate2;
The exact code you'd use depends on where you place the script and where you're getting the original date string, but this should get you started.

Red Line? Sounds ominous. I wonder what it means.
So...what does the error say?

WalterUse TO_DATE to convert a string into a DATE:
TO_DATE ( column_x
        , 'DD/Mon/YYYY'
        )Use TO_CHAR to display a DATE in a given format:
TO_CHAR ( d
        , 'DD.MM.YYYY'
        )d can be any DATE, including the DATE returned by the TO_DATE function, above.
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only), and the results you want from that data.
Explain, using specific examples, how you get those results from that data.
Always say what version of Oracle you're using.

Converting varchar2 to date format

I've converted date formats many times, but for some reason I'm getting an invalid number error when trying to convert a varchar2 column. I've tried the to_char and to_date function and I get the same result. The column is a date and it is formatted as DD-MON-YYYY, but I want to change it to MM/DD/YYYY. My query is below:
select to_date('fccpdate','MM/DD/YYYY')
from cc_class_scmast_v
When I try to_date I get this:
Error starting at line 1 in command:
select TO_DATE('fccpdate', 'DD-MON-YYYY') from cc_class_scmast_v where fccpdate IS NOT NULL
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-01858: a non-numeric character was found where a numeric was expected
01858. 00000 - "a non-numeric character was found where a numeric was expected"
*Cause:    The input data to be converted using a date format model was
incorrect. The input data did not contain a number where a number was
required by the format model.
*Action:   Fix the input data or the date format model to make sure the
elements match in number and type. Then retry the operation.
When I try to_char I get this:
Error starting at line 1 in command:
select TO_char('fccpdate', 'DD-MON-YYYY') from cc_class_scmast_v where fccpdate IS NOT NULL
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-01722: invalid number

*Cause:

I've tried removing the single quotes from my column and that doesn't make a difference. Any help is appreciated.

I've tried the to_char and to_date function and I get the same result. The column is a date and it is formatted as DD-MON-YYYY,If the column is a DATE, then it has the same format that all DATEs have, which is nothing like 'DD-MON-YYYY'. Formats like that only apply to strings.
Conversely, if it is formatted as 'DD-MON-YYY', then it is a string, not a DATE.
but I want to change it to MM/DD/YYYY. My query is below:
select to_date('fccpdate','MM/DD/YYYY')
from cc_class_scmast_vTO_DATE (x, 'MM/DD/YYYY') tries to convert the string x into a DATE. Let's say it starts by taking the first 2 characters of x, to get the month. The first 2 charcters of 'fccpdate' are 'fc', which is not a valid number (at least not in base 10), let alone a number between 1 and 12, so TO_DATE raises an error.
When I try to_date I get this:
Error starting at line 1 in command:
select TO_DATE('fccpdate', 'DD-MON-YYYY') from cc_class_scmast_v where fccpdate IS NOT NULL

I've tried removing the single quotes from my column and that doesn't make a difference. Any help is appreciated.That's a good first step. Literals are enclosed in single-quotes, identifiers (including column names) are not. 'fccpdate' is the literal 8-character string containing 'f', 'c;, another 'c', 'p', 'd', 'a', 't' and 'e'. fccpdate (without single-quotes) can be the name of a column.
If fccpdate is a string, such as '18-JUL-2012', then you can convert it to a DATE using TO_DATE.
TO_DATE (fccpdate, 'DD-MON-YYYY')If you want to display a DATE in a particular format, use
TO_CHAR ( d
        , f
        )where d is a DATE, and f is the format string. In this case, d might be the TO_DATE expression above
TO_CHAR ( TO_DATE (fccpdate, 'DD-MON-YYYY')
        , 'MM/DD/YYYY'
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) for all tables involved, and also post the results you want from that data.

String to DATS format conversion in XI.

Hello Experts,
I am using Powerbuilder system to get my Legacy data.In Powerbuilder Date needs to be supplied in STRING format.So I am giving String Format (dd-mmm-yyyy).
However, at SAP end, Date needs to be in DATS format (Standard SAP yyyymmdd) .
In Message Mapping I have given I/P structure as String and O/P structure as DATS format. When I test mapping in XI, it gives me Parseable error.
Can anybody tell me, is there any way in XI to convert from String to DATS format so that I do not get Parseable error.
Please Help!!!!

Lokesh,
With XI there is a date transformation function under date category there you need to provide source date format and target date format..
I have used the same for fetching the data from oracle..and posting into SAP..it works fine..
Try this ..this will solve ur problem....you just need to see what is the exact date format used by powerbuilder internally...
