I have a csv file in which the date is in the format YYYYMMDD for example 19910101 the nextr row has the hour. I cant manage to convert this tot three columns containing Year, month , day. Now I have imported the column als tekst How can I convert it to three Columns showing year, month day?
I dont have much experience with datasets yet.
the file is from the KNMI uurgeg_310_1991-2000.txt

When I Use datetime its gives NaT, There seems to be no time in the column only a number that shows year, mont and day as a large number.

"I cant manage to convert this tot three columns containing Year, month , day"
Hard to say without context, but you may nt want to do that. Once you have a datetime (as Les shows), likely you can do what you need to without separate date components.

As @Stephen23 said, it is better to keep the date and time as a datetime array.
See below.

Probably best to then create TT as
TT = timetable(T,RowTimes=DateTime)
(Also best to not name variable quite so similarly to classes.)

Rather than fiddling around with text or numerics, just import the 2nd column as DATETIME right from the start:
fnm = 'uurgeg_310_2021-2030.txt';
opt = detectImportOptions(fnm, 'Delimiter',',', 'Range',32, 'VariableNamingRule','preserve');
opt = setvartype(opt, 'YYYYMMDD','datetime');
opt = setvaropts(opt, 'YYYYMMDD','InputFormat','uuuuMMdd');
tbl = readtable(fnm,opt)
tbl = 24264×25 table

Worth saying that if the file was a spreadsheet and contained things like 20230101 as numeric values, there's a conversion for that too:
datetime(20230102,ConvertFrom="yyyymmdd")
ans = datetime
02-Jan-2023
