Date Field Changes

Hi

When I import an Act (6) date field it gets changed to a text field in BCM.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks

Colin

BCM imports ACT 6 user-defined datetime field as text.

Colin:

Try defining the field in BCM as a date field before you do the import and
see if that works.
