avk Major issue with date field in Apex Data loader
If DD/MM/YYYY is the date format in the csv file, then the date loaded in salesforce is unbelievably different…!
Ex: 26/10/2011 is the date in my csv file and the date is loaded in salesforce as- 2/10/2013 ..
what makes such a huge difference???
Is it like csv file doesn’t support this date format?
somebody pls respond..
I've tried all versions of data loader between 19 and 22.

If you look at the two dates. You'll notice that SF reads 26/10/2011 as the 26 month of 2011 which would be February 2013. That's where the 2/10/13 comes from.
Ex: 26/10/2011 loaded in salesforce as- 2/10/2013 ..

Try MM-DD-YYYY
Yes.. I know it will work with MM/DD/YYYY, but I would like to know why it doesn't work with DD/MM/YYYY and why there is a big difference in the date value as I mentioned..
Thanks for the response....
