    Convert String to Date in Nintex Workflow

    Hey everyone,

    Ive got two problems that i dont know how to solve.. !

    1)
    im looking for a way to convert a string variable into a date var in nintex workflow but nothing seems to work?

    2)
    I have a bunch of forms that I’m publishing to SharePoint. Each of these forms contains a lot of fields, 100+. Till Tuesday evening I never had a problem publishing but all of the sudden I get an error: ‘Updating content file failed’. When I looked it up, I found that apparently it’s because there are too many fields on the form. The solutions I found are:

    1)      When publishing making sure you’re not always creating a new column but linking the fields to existing columns. ( and that is in my case correct, so not helpful for me)

    2)      Publishing a bunch of fields every time, not all at once. But with over a 100 of fields, you can imagine how long that would take each time I make a change in my form. And even then this solution is not always working.

    3)      Publishing to a new created Form Library. First time publishing to a form library it always works. It’s from the second time that it doesn’t anymore. This is what im using now as a solution, but that is also a little crazy, every time deleting and creating a library and importing all the workflows again.

    Have you ever encountered this problem and got any other solution that might help me?  Thanksss

    Hi nomz123,

    For the string conversion, I suggest having a look at this thread on Nintex Connect - it runs through a solution: http://connect.nintex.com/forums/thread/1568.aspx.
